I want to go soon and live away by the pond, where I shall hear only the wind whispering among the reeds. It will be success if I shall have left myself behind.
But my friends ask what I will do when I get there. Will it not be employment enough to watch the progress of the seasons?

Low unemployment levels (the lowest since 1974) in the UK mean staff shortages across the hospitality industry.

The entire background story of heavy ST43 class employment in passenger service in summer 2004 you may read here, although there's another link for digging this rabbit hole even deeper. Here ST43-116 heading fast train 43101 "Bieszczady" from Gliwice to Zagórz, a moment after passing Sobniów Junction. July 23, 2004.

Szersza opowieść o tym, czemu latem 2004 na pociągach obsługiwanych przez jasielską lokomotywownię można było spotkać głównie ST43 (i parę gościnnych SP42) znajduje się tutaj (choć i tak tam jest link do jeszcze bardziej szczegółowej opowieści o przyczynach), natomiast tu zauważymy tylko ST43-116 w obsłudze pociągu pospiesznego 43101 "Bieszczady" z Gliwic do Zagórza, chwilę po minięciu posterunku odgałęźnego Sobniów. 23 lipca 2004 roku.

Please forgive me for my youthful contribution to the climate crisis. Then a college student, I took this Kodachrome slide during summertime employment in August 1965 as a pipeline welder helper. I was working on J. Ray McDermott Derrick Barge 5 (DB5), a 300-feet-long (91,4 meters), built-in-1949 behemoth with a crane that could hoist 500 tons (453.6 metric tons) and below-deck living quarters for 180 workers.
We were laying pipeline between Gulf of Mexico oilfield platforms that were 30-40 miles offshore, south of Morgan City, Louisiana, USA. Angling diagonally across this scene is a structure that gradually eases the recently added section of pipeline to the sea bottom. Projecting out into the water like a gently drooping scorpion tail, it was called a "stinger."
Please note near the tugboat two workers standing on the stinger's parallel pontoons.
And, on the catwalk between structures, four off-duty workers taking in the sunset.

‘Travail’ is French for ‘work’ so what better name for an Employment Agency?

Vakantie Noorwegen juli/aug 2016
Op 23 januari 1904 werd de hele binnenstad van Ålesund verwoest door een brand die maar liefst 16 uur duurde. Een omgevallen petroleumlamp zou de brand veroorzaakt hebben. Ongeveer 800 huizen gingen verloren en 10.000 mensen werden dakloos. Het wonderlijke is, dat je bij een ramp van deze omvang veel slachtoffers zou verwachten; er was echter maar 1 dode te betreuren.
Ålesund werd binnen drie jaar op schitterende wijze herbouwd. De opbouw van de stad bracht de stad welvaart omdat de werkgelegenheid (door de opbouw) flink groeide. De hulp kwam uit het hele land, en vooral vanuit het buitenland. En kwamen er de architecten die beïnvloed waren door de in die jaren razend populaire Jugendstil stijl (ook wel Art Nouveau genoemd). De stad herrees dan ook grotendeels in de Art Nouveaustijl. De karakteristieke gebouwen zijn heel goed in tact gebleven en dat maakt Alesund tot een aangename ‘kijk-en wandelstad’, mede door de ligging met vooral veel water, zee, fjorden en bergen als decor.
Eng:
On January 23, 1904, the entire city of Ålesund was destroyed by a fire which lasted less than 16 hours. An overturned kerosene lamp would have caused the fire. About 800 homes were lost and 10,000 people homeless. The wonder is that you would expect many casualties in a disaster of this magnitude; However, there was only one regret dead.
Ålesund was rebuilt brilliantly within three years. The construction of the city brought the city wealth because employment grew substantially (by building). The help came from across the country, and especially from abroad. And there were the architects who were influenced by those years wildly popular Art Nouveau style (also called Art Nouveau). The city rose therefore largely in the Art Nouveau style. The characteristic buildings are very well remained intact and that makes Alesund to a comfortable 'look and walking city, thanks to the location with a lot of water, sea, fjords and mountains as a backdrop.

"...it's off to work you go." (inside sentiment). This card is for a friend who got a job after 15 months of unemployment! I normally don't think of critters or bling to be an appropriate "manly" card, but couldn't resist here and it was the only idea that kept coming back to me.
The clouds are from the Precious Baby Boy set. I was inspired by Jenn B. to create a tone on tone sky background, but since I don't have that stamp, I just used the cut out clouds from my sentiment, flipped them face down onto the kraft in various places, then brayered over with ink. The grid pattern on the clouds is from a Cornish Heritage Farms stamp. I drew the tools, stamped the handles with woodgrain, then colored and cut out. I drew a miner's hat and added a gem for the light. Thanks for looking!

ENGLISH:
Two men in the Salvation Army's Brocki employment program vacate an apartment.
Brocki's employment program provides work and tasks for the unemployed and marginalized.
Brocki = Brockenstube = pieces leftover shop = second-hand goods store. The term "Brocki" (pieces leftover) goes back to the biblical quote in John 6:12 about feeding the five thousand, according to which Jesus instructed his disciples: "... Gather the pieces leftover so that nothing is lost!"

It looks like a work train assignment for me, on the first month anniversary of beginning my employment with Burlington Northern. This took me down what was known then as "the South Line", a referral to the route from Alliance, Nebr., to Laurel, Mont., by way of Guernsey, Casper, and the Wind River Canyon. A pair of Lincoln (Nebr.) to Laurel freights numbered 177 and 178 plied this route, but my work train has taken siding for the eastward local from Guernsey, Wyo., to Alliance. The power is big time road stuff today, with an SD45 leading a pair of SD9's. Usually the Guernsey local rates SD9's or U23c's. With the two headlights in the nose and between the numberboards, this is a former CB&Q SD45 and I'm sure the trailing SD9's trace their heritage to the "Q" as well. The numerous business tracks along the North Platte River valley kept this train going, with seasonal sugar beets on top of the beans that were shipped. For me it looks like the job is distributing fresh ties along the tracks. This was all freight for now, but in a couple years the coal trains would flow when the "Orin Line" was completed to connect the Powder River Basin mines with this route.

Bush fire smoke from Australia's massive fire fronts envelop the scene as this mighty lash up hauls Southern Shorthaul Railroad's grain train from Victoria to Newcastle in NSW. Currently NSW has no wheat and is importing from Victoria, South Australia and Canada!
The rarely utilised leading two locos, imported Gensets 1201-1202, are being transferred to Newcastle for further employment.
Spectre gave a deep sigh.
“What’s wrong?” asked Fuen.
“Been diagnosed with multiple personality disorder,” said Spectre. “So I phoned my boss to tell him I’d need some time off.”
“And?” inquired Fuen.
Spectre sighed again. “I said you’re self-employed, you silly sod.”

This is one of those odd scenes that you can capture only in winter. The low midday sun angle combined with a massive light reflection from a recent snowfall illuminating the face of the building even with intense backlighting. It wasn't even a photo I intended to take in the first place. I was photographing in an adjacent cemetery on a freezing cold day. I gravitated toward this magnificent old building, an odd blend of Gothic and Greek Revival architecture. The sun was shining obliquely through a sort of greasy layer of high clouds that sucked most of the color and vibrance from the sky. I took a couple of steps back, just enough so that the sun emerged from behind the roof line and the rays shot out as if from behind the moon during an eclipse. Great lens flare potential (not to mention lighting up every speck of dust on my image sensor). What I love about the scene is the dichotomy of the heroic sun flare combined with the intensely gritty look of the facade. In normal lighting the building presents a monolithic surface of white paint. But in this light, every nuance of architectural detail is revealed, along with that forlorn star ornament, the kind of Christmas decoration that remains all year long. The lighting is extremely unflattering yet oddly compelling. Puts me in mind of paparazzi photos you often see on the covers of tabloid magazines (while waiting in line at the grocery checkout as your eyes seem to dart across every thing within view)) showing celebrities in terrible poses, harsh lighting, distraught, weird facial expressions, whatever supports the storyline. As photographers, we largely control the context of presentation. Beyond that are the myriad ways we choose to interpret our subjects. And how that interpretation is subject to change from day to day, based on mood and available lighting. I drove past this place recently around the same time of day. I noticed that the sun would not even appear in the frame from this angle as it's now much higher in the sky. The snow had since melted, and without the reflected light, the facade was pitched into deep shadow. Seasons have changed and everything appears in a new light now.
