That's actually a car ad, isn't it? No matter.
At the moment I should be finishing off an online application - public service intake for the following year closes April of the preceding year in most departments, oddly - but ... ha! Make me! No, don't, please, it's hideously boring and full of crap ("provide an example where you worked with others in a group to achieve a common goal. please state the situation, your action and the outcome." are you kidding me? do I have to wear the school uniform again too?). I do actually have a job now - that interview I mentioned a while back with the WA Police went better than I somehow thought at the time, and it looks like I start next week - but it's just a temporary thing while I scrounge up an actual career, so it seems wise to try to get into something else next year.
Can't say I'm insanely enthusiastic about any of it, but meh. Work is not supposed to be interesting. Work is supposed to be what you do while you're wishing you could do something else - something to make you appreciate your weekends more XD
I have had a nice day today, delightfully full of mediaeval maybeship-nails and archaeological Thames beach detritus (you UK madames get pipe-stems and pottery fragments washing up on shore ... we get six-pack plastics and stubbies), because saltnester is made of several densely packed layers of awesome.
Also, I have eaten fifteen Anzac biscuits. Take up my challenge IF YOU DARE (and if you know what an Anzac biscuit actually is, come to think of it ;P).
