Grrrr have had such a shite day from the minute I woke up! Rang APU to ask about how to apply and the woman was all shirty with me, saying i had left it quite late (no shit i emailed u about this weeks ago and u said it would be ok, BITCH), that she had lots of app forms to deal with and that i need to be in employment, and its best i apply for next year....What?! This cant be happening, its in my life plan to be at uni in sep, this cant be altered! Grrrr.
Then I Went to Southend to get my hair done (it's very nice by the way, shorter, layered, v dark brown/black with red streaks and a fringe!) - took 3.5 hrs to do and cost more than i expected although still cheap. But that was a semi grrsome event of the day. THEN i got back to carpark to find a parking fee as i had gone over the time, FUCKERS. Managed to get a valid ticket off some bloke but doubt i will get away with it cos think they photograph cars in this carpark. Grrrrr. Wank wank wank.
Then dashed back home, all pissed off and irritable cos gotta have a quick lunch and get to an interview that i really cant be arsed to go to.
Leave house with plenty of time (i thought), take wrong turning out of chelmsford which wastes 15 mins, and then takes ages to get to harlow cos godamn stupid slow drivers and slow moving lorry type things on the country roads. Fuck harlow, fuck the traffic, fuck bad drivers. Fuck the shit job interview. End up in ghastly day centre for elderly mentally ill ppl/dementia thinking 'great, nice job'. Answer stupid questions, one being 'what would u do if a client who wasnt normally incontinent had an accident when u came to visit them?'. Erm....RUN? GO HOME? LAUGH? My days of doing care asst shite are well behind me. I am a godamn graduate with years of exp in community care, fuck this for a laugh....Sweet smiles, polite and comprehensive answers, pretending to be interested in job, asking lots of questions, making crap jokes....They like me, i can tell, duno wot to do if they offer it to me. May have to take it, beggars cant be choosers.
More interview malarcey this week and for next few weeks, so boring and annoying. Am broke, pissed off, irritable, bored, exasperated generally crushed at my life plans being shaken about like a rag doll.
On a more positive note, i had an amazing weekend with my new man Chris. He is lovely and we have lots in common. Early days but we'll see how it goes! Yay!
