Dean Whitbread writes: Being lucky enough to be born into the most unemployed generation ever (we suffered record unemployment and bankruptcy in the 80s and 90s, and enjoyed our own unique, proudly British economic recessions under Thatcher) and having been so well educated so that I was almost completely unemployable, I have spent the last 30 years masterfully workshy and have now raised it to something of a consummate art form. Which is what my art training (completely free, fully funded, no fees to pay, with a single-parent family, living-away-from-home grant) expertly equipped me for. While you were learning management, media, and mortuary manners, I was reading Rimbaud, eating mushrooms, and saving the planet. While you were busting a gut to get your first puny bonus to pay the phone bill, I was signing on the dole with my livelihood written down as "deep sea fisherman". When they made me change that after a year, I wrote "samba dancer". After another year, I wrote "poet". Then I wrote, DJ, added the magic word Funk, and my oath was sworn.
