emothyOh blah, the internet effing sucks. Went to the job centre this morning and printed out a bunch of jobs. One requires a passport sized photo with the application, how weird is that? Manager must be a pervert ;)
But yeah I find a job that involves no customers really (it's filing and computer using for medicals archives and records and things) and I go to look for the application online like it says, and the job doesn't exist!
I'm betting they filled it and just didn't tell the jobcentre so they're still advertising it. Blahhhh. And mum yelled at me to call up the number (seriously she had to tell me off to make me do it, I hate phones so completely) and it turned out to be a pre-recorded message telling you to leave your name and address and the reference number for the job. Of course she can't hear me talking to anyone so she comes in to ask what's up and I have to cut it off before it starts recording me explaining to her what's up, so then she grabs the phone, dials again to listen, and rattles off my name and address for me! I could've done it... Maybe :/
I just wish I had some confidence and some push, and that I didn't hate phones! Though everything is done online seriously, the message said to apply online and if you didn't have net access go to the library or a net cafe or just GET ONLINE SOMEHOW OMG sort of thing.
Yeah it sounded like a boring job, but it involves organising, which I like, and no phones, which I reeeeeally like, and it was decent money, better than my mum is on. All the other jobs were retail things, so I guess if this one really is taken I'll be checking out those. Mum made me go back into the place I handed a CV in on Tuesday, Yours, this women's clothes shop, and I asked about when to expect a call if I'm gonna get one and the woman said she's going over them at the end of next week. Which isn't good enough for my mum, but I can't control it! And I feel really pushy now :/ But apparently that's how you get a job. Blah, jobs suck.
Eh at least she's off my case now. We're going out to lunch with my nan and grandad. Dad's staying here to talk to Tony, the guy who'sfitting us a new living room window after the last one fell down, almost cut of my dad's fingers, got jammed and took three full grown men to prise it apart and push it back up. Dumb window, what kind of window is split and makes the top come DOWN instead of the bottom being pushed up? Stupidest design ever!
Eh now to do something fun til lunch. Uhm.
ETA: Yay three days before my paid account expires I got off my ass and finished up my moodtheme! MmmmNickyRichey! :D
And also, Cyn, this? I seriously didn't notice it til now! Looking back over my entries to see how the moodtheme came out I came across it!
