a job when you have your own business that hasn't made a penny in over two years is not on?

This is someone I know.

There's currently another thread doing the rounds this evening where the OP is considering reporting a potentially false school catchment application. I really think people should learn to mind their own business. It really is those who someone would even consider to be a friend who'll be reporting you, gossiping etc. Tis a shame people don't have much else going on in their lives tbh.

The same planet you're on, the same planet in which 4 people I know have secured jobs in the past few months or so, in fact one started their new job today...

There are jobs out there.

Is OP a bot?

In the US, I believe such a 'business' would be deemed a 'hobby' with tax ramifications....
