Updates? Maaaaybe
So as my Ames said, I haven't been updating properly again.
So whats been going on.
Have spent the weekend with Karen, as is always nice and i feel sad when i dont get to. Since the weather has decided to go snowy on us again I'm glad we managed to get her here on Friday as she needed to leave early today.
Been a nice weekend which included a horribly failed raid on WoW, my first viewing of Scream - yes ever - and my getting to see The Circus performance by Take That on Karen's DVD.
As far as work goes, I appear to have been utterly ignored in my job application for Apple. This saddens me for a number of reasons and I guess thats just another step on my working career or lack thereof. As Karen and I discussed recently, any job that requires retail experience recently seems to be overlooking me despite the fact that I'm FAR more qualified and able than - in most cases - their entire staff. We decided this is because students/younger people can be manipulated, used and paid less. Me? Its looking like I need a management position if I am to go back to retail. In the meantime, web design jobs, admin, photography and writing jobs dont seem to show any interest due to no official experience. This I understand more, and is unfortunate.
Needless to say, this is somewhat depressing for me and I don't know where I'd be without my better half keeping me sane :) She truly is my rock.
I've set up various blogs to try and get me writing again. Even if its gibberish, which is why this place has been so quiet, as I feel only this type of update should be here. Many wont care what I'm doing with WoW or Final Fantasy, others wont want to see my icons or writing, so i figure if I write anything of note I can just attach the links.
And don't worry, when asked about leadership experience, I am not telling them about experiences as a guild leader ;)
ttfn, hope you're all well.
