Who could have imagined that kinda unusual "context"? You would have saved everyone's time by showing that in the first place.

Thanks man.

So again, what is the accepted translation? Jobless? Unarmed? Freelancer? In english those have very different meanings.

You know, RealJames, assuming that's you in the avatar, I think you look a bit like Bam Margera. Every time I see your bloody avatar, I think I'm reading some post by a Japanese-speaking skateboarding Jackass ;)

haha, well I don't board, nor do I have that much hair on the top of my head, hence that fashionable grey hat ><
I like to think I'm not a jackass either, but maybe my gf disagrees :P
