...tomorrow marks one week from my interview with Company E, who said they would let me know "within the week". And today I'm just a ball of undirected nervous energy. I have butterflies in my stomach. I feel sick.

(Not sick enough to have avoided GAINING 0.7 KILOS this week though. FUCK.)

I've spent the whole weekend (when I wasn't busy ranting ( Read more... )

As you know, I bought  little notecards last week to send as Thank You cards to my Company E interviewers. They are BRIGHT PINK and reminded me of mehndi designs and Islamic art -  I KNOW, I'm a bellydancer right down to my corporate core. I CAN'T HELP IT. (Side note 1 - does nobody write notecards or letters anymore? Because it was nearly BLOODY  ( Read more... )

... to be a cat. Stretched out on the couch, warm sunlight spilling over you, drifting off to sleep. Very pleasant. I can see why they do it. This was my post afternoon crash and burn after this morning's DRAMA!

Today was Interview With Company E day. I was... absolutely sick with nerves. I was up until 2:30 am drying and straightening my hair (it ( Read more... )

Things I Have Done Since Friday:

• Bought 4 DVD's despite not having any money. (THEY WERE TOTALLY ON SALE)
• Walked around in the park
  • Resisted feeding the ducks because DAMN, is that WHOLE FUCKING LOAF floating in the pond?
  • Been bitten by mozzies, OMG *scritch scritch scritch* *BLEEDS* *SCRITCHSCRITCHSCRITCH*
• Walked into town
  • FINALLY tasted a Memphis ( Read more... )

It's another glorious sunny day in Noo Zillundonia today, so I was off to the park for a wander around in the sunshine. In July when I first moved here to Invercargill I took a walk around the park while waiting for the Letting Agent to let me in to the new place - and I saw the new Userpic I've uploaded here (well, minus the FLEH tag underneath, ( Read more... )

Good arvo to you, friendly reader! Would you mind giving me a bit of advice? Kthnx.

( If you answered )

No job at Company V for me.

*sigh*

Well. It really is a funny old world, isn't it?

Yesterday's Property Inspection was fine. I only had to get indignant once with one thing which was LIKE THAT WHEN WE MOVED IN, and the lady caved immediately, so.... yeah, I totally win. They're sending round their wee handyman to oil the squeaky sticky garage door, reseal the base of the toilet in ( Read more... )

To top off my morning, just got rejected from the job that I RE-applied for just yesterday. So, current tally stands:

Job Applications: 7
Interviews: 3 (1 of which hasn't happened yet)
Job Offers: 0

I think it was another automatic system-generated rejection - because there's really no way an HR team has had time this morning to process all the ( Read more... )

Job Applications: 6
Interviews: 3

I just got a call inviting me to an interview next Tuesday! YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! (Yes, I watch CSI. No, I think that joke will NEVER GET OLD but I couldn't be bothered thinking of one and just skipped to the end).

Gives me a week to fret and freak out and geek on the company on tinterwebs and get ( Read more... )
