This pre-loved workhorse was made in the day when things were built to last and while she has a few miles, of valuable experience, on the clock, there's plenty of life in the old girl yet. The MFK8 has the kind of qualities you just don't find any more, like common sense and self control.
The well-educated and highly literate MFK8 has experience in hotel and residential care management, from bar work to book work and everything in between. She can competently operate a variety of computer programmes, eftpos machines and has an extensive range of IT skills. She was also trained by the TAB in the use of its systems.
Her twin air-bags (lungs) have powered a stint in radio announcing, making her suitable for all manner of voice-over/telephone work. The highly desirable MFK8 is also an experienced copy/creative writer for radio and press and not just the boring generic stuff. The MFK8 creativity level is off the charts. Her scripts in the past have been so controversial, voting was needed to decide whether to run with them or not and approval had to be sought to give them the all clear for broadcast. The MFK8 really does think outside the box and creatively speaking is not for the faint of heart, but she does get results.
More recently the MFK8 has found success working with literacy in adult learners and has also enrolled in part-time study, doing papers in counselling and psychology, in the hope they will complement the past work she has done with "at risk" youth.
Today the MFK8 is perhaps best known as the writer of this very column - (free advertising for any prospective employer) - nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
The MFK8 comes with many classic features, not seen too often in this disposable age. Her inbuilt dedication and loyalty remain in great working order and her sense of humour could almost be classed as a collectors item, bringing much-needed laughter to any workplace. There is plenty of storage space, should she need to be re-programmed or fitted out with new skills. The tow bar makes the MFK8 the perfect choice for extra loads of responsibility and the automatic choke guarantees a self-starter that can work well unsupervised.
Best of all, the MFK8 is economical to run. While not prepared to work for chicken feed, she'll happily negotiate a remuneration package around cat and dog food.
Bottom line is the MFK8 just wants to be off the benefit and out from under her current oppressive regime. She longs to be returned to the workplace and contributing to society again. Absolutely anything considered. Full-time, part-time, over-time, any-time.
A new starter motor means the MFK8 is ready to make her comeback today. Test drives welcome. Take the MFK8 for a spin and see how well she performs. The MFK8 comes with a full service history and a certificate of authentication. All paperwork is available on request.
