Life as we know it
Sep. 22nd, 2010 02:02 pmGoing for an interview at 3.30pm with a temp agency in Durham. I don't remember applying to them, but I picked up the call yesterday whilst asleep so my memory of the conversation goes like this:
Me: zzzzzzzz
Phone: *ring*
Me: zzzzzzz *picks up* zzzzello?
Consultant: *Peanuts-style mwaa mwaa mwaa* interview at some point this week?
Me: .... Yes? I'm free Wednesday.
And here I am, freshly showered and ready to roll. Though I think this interview is to sign up officially on their books? And they deal with office recruitment, which - pleh. But whatever pays, y'know? At least office hours are conducive to evening and weekend work.
Speaking of, I have all appropriate appendages crossed that I get the 8-hour weekend job at Ann Summers. *leer*
Umming and ahhing about the future, naturally. It's my default state. If Disney ask to hire me this winter, I'm not sure I'll go. I WANT to go, at some point, but if I've just managed to pull together 2-4 jobs in time for Xmas, the last thing I'll want to do is jump ship (pun entirely intended). So I'm thinking of speaking to their agency and asking them to remove me from the pool of applicants - at least temporarily.
Have instead been looking at the PGCE (Secondary), specifically in English with Drama at Durham. Durham's program is credibly worse than Newcastle's, but NCL is a long way away and I do not intend to have a car for very much longer. Though I'm still debating the merits of selling it.
*rolls eyes* My problems are so First World.
