find me a job

right... Im pissed off with my job/life/london, if i carry on i will be climbing the water tower with gun in hand very soon. I fancy doing something completely new and different, and am open to suggestions. I have dual US/European citzenship so can probably get a work permit in most places. I am a shipbroker by trade (basically a commodities broker) so my chief skills are commodity markets / international trade / negotiation / bullshitting / bullying / contract law and client entertaining. I can also turn my hand to most things to do with business & trade. I have been in oil / shipping all my working life so dont really know what else is out there anyone got any bright ideas?

Tugboat captain? That's what I would want to do if I was looking for a new career.

In all seriousness, Trav. I think you need to find a head hunter. Anyone have any suggestions?

Marna's looking for a new job, too. So, really, if anyone knows any non-slimebag recruiter/head-hunters that work with electrical engineer types...

It's not what you're used to in London, but I've never made that kind of money ever before, and have a nice life. Librarianship-- not something you go into for the dough!

My favorite job ever was as a union organizer...also not big on the payout, though.
