I made a start here https://mastodon.org.uk/@TorbayUK
so set up an account to promote my local area, if I can convince people at the tourist board it is worth them being on there, it should be easy for them to add a link then it helps promote my local area, maybe get paid to maintain it officially

so despite lack of income I am trying to demonstrate what I can do, in a real world situation, show I can collaborate use initiative problem solve all good skills,
@zleap @hansw @jwildeboer @noisytoot
Thats a good thing, just do your best always and it will happen in time.
Took me five years to get where Im at and now actually have 2 companies competing for my work. I jack the number up with every offer and they keep saying LETS GOOOOO!
Its crazy man and actually kind of stressful.
@JustJim @hansw @jwildeboer @noisytoot
The nice thing about here is if I tag someone in they react, boost, answer people it is more friendly and actually professional in that respect.
This will be important if new people get in touch with the fediverse or want to know more about something
@hansw @jwildeboer @JustJim
I am collecting some info so I can e-mail them tomorrow. I would much rather be paid PAYE so I don't have to worry about paying my own taxes , so just concentrate on what I am good at,
I also worked on this with @noisytoot
