The way to get a job(if you can't get a paying one) is to volunteer and then you meet people who may know of jobs, that's the way you get a job. Don't apply on websites. You have to talk to real people.Robert knows all about this. He goes to a job search group every Monday morning even though he has a job now, he helps other people. > > Me too.

I got this job through a recruiter contacting me through Linkedin.com. It's easy to stay at home and not get out & see people,especially when you are not in an urban area. For Nick maybe you have to set a firm deadline & if he doesn't take some action, then change the locks.(this sounds bad,I know)
