I know that mothers tend to think no ill of their children, but my mum has just suggested that i apply for a job at KC Superbikes, to offer my experience to their maintenance department.
Many a true word spoken in jest?
I've got a degree in mechanical engineering and worked for 25 years heading up project teams on jobs up to and in excess of a million pounds.
Maybe I should try it! It would get me off the unemployment register and combine my love of engineering, people management and motorbikes.
Good old mum!

Re: Job application.
Pay? What's that? Is it some kind of torture?
I would naturally offer my services to the motorcycle community on a charitable basis.
I'm charitable to them...they're charitable to me. The idea of beer tokens seems a good one. I require a good number of those. As long as I can redeem them against any other alcoholic beverage, such as rum, when my little tummy is too full of ale.

Re: Job application.
You could agree a 'compensation' rather than pay - I understand that comes tax free and with many other benefits.
