Emptying my pockets, I've just rediscovered a job listing that the Jobcentre system recommended for me this afternoon, and felt I had to go look it up and print it after I noticed that it was listed along with "minicab driver" jobs (which is where you have to look if you want to be a paramedic).
Although I'm sure probabilistic seismic hazard models are fascinating, I don't think I'll be applying for this one.
