I lost it a bit yesterday:
"Where on my profile, that you obviously couldn't be bothered to read, does it say I've used or listed as a skill: Tableau?"

He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.
I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

Been looking for three weeks and there does seem to be the roles around and had a couple of phone calls but no interviews. Back in ye olde day there was more or less a pyramid of finding suitable roles and putting yourself forward of which some lead to talking to an agent, which some led to interviews and then you repeated the exercise until you had a contract.
When i have looked over the last few years it was all quiet up to the point someone got in touch about a contract and you started the next week with minimum fuss.
