the retail jobs over here are always looking for enthusiasticity.

I want nothing more than the opportunity to work for minimum wage with no benefits. After going through something so mind-numbing as university I've decided that what I really need is the excitement and challenge provided by a sales position at your store"

I know some graduates just got a job I wanted for 4,000 squids more than I'm on despite the fact that I have 4 years experience doing just waht they asked for, because, "We think you'd get bored"

What.

The.

Fuck?

well i just had a job interview for a job i didn't want and i bombed.........................

YAY!

i don't think the company know what to do with me to be honest.
i'm becoming an enigma Smile Smile Smile

it was probably because rather than preparing for the interview, i decided to listen to OK Computer instead,

or maybe because i was almost drooling at the mouth at the thought of getting the new gorky's album,

anyone got it yet????????

For the first time in 5 years I'm actually doing an ok job and with people who want to 'develop' me... (I think I am some kind of cro-magnan man in their eyes ah well)

And decent coffee to boot!
