well, its been a few weeks of jobhunting, and no luck yet; the main two factors being that I havent passed my driving test yet, and I'm only looking for a job until next august... however, my optimism is unaffected, and I am continuing to send out CV's and applications...

however, last week I ran out of money... so I went into the Job Agency in ( Read more... )

i certainly am extremely busy!

im taking a year out from education before going to uni :-) *see previous posts for elaboration and further info*
so im looking for a job that pays as much as possibly possible in order to save loads for uni :-D
this warehouse work is a temp thing to keep me moneyed until i get a job for the year.

and yes, apart from this week, when i am working until unhelpful o' clock in the evening, i am trying to keep myself available for fun stuff too. ive started laying guide tracks down for recording my band, so hopefully by christmas at the latest we should have a 5/6 track CD all properly done! :-D

i wish i could hear kill claudio, not just..the other band u drum for which has a name that eludes me now. it's late and i'm sleepy hehe.

i hope the warehouse work isn't too tough. I did warehouse work for a bit and it was fairly tough lifting *is a weakling* but wow, that is fairly good pay on this side of the spectrum (i work a min-wage job that, after raises over accumulated hours, pays $8.90 canadian. Also hafta minus union fees and taxes and stuff...) but at least you're earning quite a lot! =D

today your wish comes true! at www.myspace.com/killclaudio
A Thousand Years is my other bands name, and its ok, im pretty sleepy too *just got home from work*

the warehouse work is long and tiring (and extremely filthy), but straightforward and easy, so its not too bad. also my coworkers are affable enough, so there is good conversation throughout the day. and £6 an hour for a part time job at my age is quite good really, so yeah :-D

*pouts at you* I can't find anything to listen to. @_@ or maybe i'm ....blind? ;_;

yea, the warehouse work I did was filthy too but it didn't require too much thinking. That IS awesome pay according to your conversions....i mean, the most I've earned (aside from music gigs coz those pay like, $50 an hour!) is $13 and THAT was working at a law firm which required too much brainpower for my liking LOLZ. =__=''

really?! hmmm...
www.myspace.com/killclaudio is definitely the place to go. its the only place we have any music up online...

there should be a lil white and grey MySpace Player box on the top right hand side- same as the A Thousand Years myspace.

yeah i wish i played the Harp, like my girlfriend- she earns £100 an hour doing that ($200 US)
