It is some indication of the times we live in that by far the best read article on the blog yesterday was the one mentioning that there were interesting jobs available right now.
That may of course be that it was not the best day of blogging I've ever done - I accept that possibility.
But I think it may be that we live in times where work of any type, let alone interesting work, is hard to find.
And that's a sad indictment of our society and a true measure of poverty behind the veneer of prosperity that the country still tries to adopt.
Thanks for reading this post.

As ¨prosperity¨ increases more and more jobs will go to automation.
It is a sign of the times that a person can have a meaningful and productive job one day, and the next be a welfare scrounger.
Would that all un/under skilled people can get suitable jobs where education, training and ability are not needed; like being a politician.
I suppose we can hope that labour forms the next government?
Except that the labour politicians share the same univ degrees, the same connected-family backgrounds and the same inability to relate, as the crowd of wasters we have running the country now.
Well the Rowentree job is, at least, interesting! In an economic system that is peristaltically shunting towards mass debt-peonage with people working massive, life destroying, hours, where the debate has been dumbed down by the media and where our rulers look on with glee as the poor attack the even poorer – we know what to expect. You either become a wealth syphoner a become a syphonee.
Voting in 2015 won’t help all that much as labour is signed up to the same agenda in essence. When politicians are as craven as this we are in trouble.
