And now the most recent update (to my files, 'N73,' but to most of you Volume 4, Chapter 13) is up on ff.net and mediaminer.

Don't expect much in the way of review replies over the next few weeks. My schedule is... suddenly quite hectic, and chances are I'll barely have time to read them, much less reply to them, at least through Christmas. Who knows when I'll have time to actually WRITE anything else....

desaix, more than anything thanks for continuing the story this much and keeping it alive.

It's been a pretty amazing run with the story so far.

[uzumakinaruko]

Okay, I managed to get the next chapter ready for my birthday, and it's been posted here. I'll get it to the FFML and Mediaminer later tonight (well, probably after my birthday, technically, since it'll be several hours after midnight). Enjoy.

Happy Birthday. I hope you fixed those errors that were pointed out in the last chapter.

Ah, finally had the time to read this chapter, and i thought it was very good, i really liked the Akadou clan thing with Orochimaru, a very interesting twist. Cant wait for next chapter, whenever it comes

Anything going on with Training for the Job lately?

Anything going on with Training for the Job lately?

Sadly, no. Ask again in another month, and the answer MIGHT (further emphasis on the might) change.

At least we know you're still alive. Gods, why do you guys answer so infrequently? I'm amazed the fans haven't mutinied yet!

Yes I agree. Ive Been reading the whole story and Im enjoying it immensly. one of my favorite parts was the Naruto Sakura Ino Obstacle course run. very well done and emotionally strong.

[jim1982]

Training is a great story, lol of course now that ya know the yondaimes name, ya gonna include that in the story or just leave it a mystery?

[uzumakinaruko]

Desaix!

Found 2 errors in Training For The Job that I can't believe I missed!!

Chapter 52 (AKA V3 Chapter 42)

In the 10th paragraph of the scene between Gamakichi and Chikan you called Gamakishi Gamabunta.

In the 4th paragraph of the scene between Umiko Ran and Shuuma, you had Shuuma say that Ran's leader has a contract with the toads. Sakura has a contract with the slugs, remember?

Thought you'd like to know!

Just here to give my opinion. In my eyes, I believe it is the best work of Naruto fiction I have ever read, bar none. The storyline is so incredibly unique and invigorating, that I've twice found myself pulling all-nighters when I couldn't stop reading this story. I've also re-read it several times.

I cannot stand waiting for updates. Every time I check FanFiction.Net in my bookmarks - almost daily I wish to say - I hope to find an update to this story.

I realise that I'm in no place to ask you for more chapters, considering I know next to nothing of your work/family/life commitments. But I however, am a very selfish person when it comes to my literacy needs. This story is a feast for the mind and far too good to be left alone and abandoned.

Please update.

I hate to tell you, but that won't work. Desaix (the author) is VERY infrequent. We MIGHT see new chapters in July, but I WOULDN'T hold my breath, if I were you. I've been watching this story for 2 years now, so I know. Just try to relax and go read Team 8 by S'TarKan on Fanfiction. It's a great story (it's a NaruHina) and it should tide you over untile Desaix comes back. Or you could also read The Person I Admire by Gadalla Rune or A Sad Life Deserves More by Zendura.

I wish Desaix would go back to that wonderful Gohan/Videl story. That was truly one the first fanfics I've ever really fell in love with. But NaruSaku is good too.

As a brief explanation, since it seems discussion of this fic is coming up again:

I actually do have a few chapters written (and have had them written for a few months; I am not currently working on the fic, despite the fact it is still unfinished). However, due to a situation I cannot discuss at this time, I am not allowed to post any of them anywhere, or send them through e-mail. This goes not just for Training, but for any fanfics I may be in the process of writing or have written.

And I cannot say any more on that.

Cannot discuss? WOW. OK, guess we'll wait and see and hope. Hope the situation gets resolved so that you can come back. Weird that you can't even email to anybody. Oh well.

Good luck. PLS keep us apprised.

[Leney]

Oh the Gohan/Videl fic is just wishful thinking. It's been years since it was last updated so I'm not desperately waiting for it. Sorry if you got the wrong idea.

I have read Team 8, as well as The Person I Admire, they're both excellent entertainment. I haven't tried the third one, but I'll certainly give it a try when I have time. Thanks for the recommendations!

It's extremely hard to find well written fanfiction of a decent length (meaning 100,000 words and above). I've come across a few however. One I recommend is Naruto Fuujinroku by Daneel Rush -Koushi-. Like Training for the Job, it deviates from the regular Naruto plot quite substantially, but the story is excellent - which is rare. I tend to automatically bypass most stories around as they seem far too generic. I also tend to ignore stories that have typos in their summaries. Hrm!

desaix: A little dispirited that you're not allowed to post, but at the same time incredibly heartened that you're still working on the story! Thanks for keeping at it.

Any chance for one spoiler? Will you at least have the Hyuuga b*tch dealt with if you do get to continue posting?

Glad to help! Thanks for yours!

Yes, typos are the bane of my existence. Most BETA's have to do a better job than they do. When I BETA a story, I look for ALL spelling errors (example: your when it's supposed to be you're).

Glad to see that you're still (somewhat) working on the fic; even if you can't post. Hopefully the situation will get resolved some time in the near future.
