He probably needs to earn money and is being taken advantage of for being a hard grafter.

If he was a mate of mine I would have him on board, paid a bit more. I could use somebody who is prepared to put in a good days work on a regular basis.

Post by: Justen Uff on March 06, 2011, 10:48:42 pm: Tell him to put his name and phone number up on here and advertise that he will wfp and collect the money as an employee anywhere in the country 9 hours a day and I bet someone will offer him a good job. Someone will probably help to relocate him!
