Answer 1

If you live in the UK try the railway industry. You can get some jobs (well, you've got to have some training first) where you can stand and watch all day. For example, you can get a job as a lookout, your job is to watch for trains and let the group leader know that a train is approaching. There are other similar jobs in the railway industry, I'm sure you'd like it.

Answer 2

I think you've got the job description wrong thats why! Its "Road Maintenance Engineering Manager"! The main qualifications required are

1) Not being an actual Engineer (if you haven't been through the slog of an Engineering degree you ARE NOT and Engineer!)

2) Being an avid tea drinker is an essential qualification!

3) Must be able to wolf-whistle at passing women

4) A builders bum is a must!

5) Must always have a copy of the Sun or other such publication in your van!

I think thats mostly it!

Answer 3

It's one of those professions that you have to force an entry into. I suggest that next time you see a dude digging you just go over and watch! It may take some days of turning up and watching, but eventually they will see your dedication to the job and take you on. Now go forth and watch.........watch like you've never watched before!

Answer 4

Just one bloke watching? They must be trying to save money. where I live there are usually at least 3 blokes watching.

Answer 5

Call all engineers and higher officials at the dept. of public works & highways your "uncle." Change your ID & name to suit their own family names. Tell them you aretheir long lost nephew! And name drop politicians in your area as if you just had a mahjong session the other night.

ps. as for your ID, there are a lot of computer shops and printing services that offer ala-Recto docus.

If you're not from Manila, visit some time.

Answer 6

you need a diploma from college to watch people digging holes. Construction management or sometihng. you could get work experience by buying your own hard hat and clipboard and practise standing around whenever you see a crew digging a hole. just stand around and if they ask say you're on a college course!

Answer 7

I think there is a vacancy for the job of the guy who watches over the guys who are watching over the guy leaning on the shovel. You get a gold hard hat and a cheeky little Mercedes convertable and u can fiddle like that chinky bird Vanessa Mae?

Answer 8

get a certificate from a company expressing their gratitude for your dedication to your job as a supervisor, make sure it looks real. get a good forger. then give your uncle's phone number in case the company where you are applying for wants to make a character check.
when you see that bloke again try chatting with him and get some tips on how he runs his job. this is to prepare you for the interview. GOOD LUCK !

Answer 9

try your local council as they usually have 4/5 watching 1 workingor leaning on a shovel

the ones you have seen must have been private companies with 1 working and 1 watching

so go for council work as you have 5 to1 chance of being the one who do`s the work

private is evens favorite to work

Answer 10

There is a special secret course that you can take. It is very secretive so you will have to keep asking. I have done it and you will have to be expert at either holding up walls or leaning against a shovel for long periods of time.
