Welcome to the Guardian Jobs newsletter

Dear Ian,
This November we have new education vacancies to set your enthusiasm alight. Following the launch of last month's jobs mobile service, we have a new video section with advice from how to write a covering letter to becoming the office hero. Guardian Jobs has all the help and advice you need at your fingertips.

Careers advice videosWant to know how to tell your boss you've made a big mistake? Or how to negotiate the salary for your new job? The videos offer straightforward, no nonsense advice on a range of work and career-related subjects.
Public gives teachers a glowing reportA recent survey has found public perceptions of teachers, and of teaching as a career, are surprisingly positive. Until recently, those in the profession, spurred on by negative stereotypes in the media and a lack of government support, have often believed the public did not have a very high opinion of teachers. But 50% of the public questioned now see teaching as an attractive career.

Dear JeremyWhether it's a personality clash in the office or an unwanted relocation issue our agony uncle Jeremy Bullmore will help you find a solution.
How's your work/life balance?Work/life balance doesn't just mean getting to the pub on time. There are new ways for employers and employees to decide on working hours and allot benefits. Try our quiz to find out if you know what 'getting wlb' involves.

The Guardian are really taking the proverbial now.

On a lighter note, the Government have today given away the personal details of 25 million people. This includes bank details, names and addresses of everyone in the UK that qualifies for family tax credits. This really puts my little error with the Complementry Art Gallery into perspective.

We have also tried to set up the inaugural meeting of the Southend Poppadom Society. Well I say we, more like Simon and me, in an Indian restaurant on Friday night. I am trying to get some takers, but no-one seems interested. Let's see what happens.

The chain smoking spider has really ceased to be. Hippy and Lenny are all ok (They are greatly relieved that the fireworks have dissipated).

So on with the jobs:

Oh no wait...

Paranormal Barry has been doing some repairs on a property that I manage. He sent me a picture of some fences that he has been working on. Guess what? Another orb.

I have also been trying to purloin pianos from various people at work. They all seem to have friends that own them, but are not willing to lend me them for The City Council of Liverpool.

Casual Subeditors, observer sport. I reckon I wouldn't have to wear a tie. Anyway, closing date was 7/10/07.

END OF PAGE 16!!!!

Page 17 looks a bit posh. I think I'll leave it until tomorrow. Sheridan Edward from Modern Art Oxford can surely wait another day for my application.
