I left my full glass of Coke on the lounge table... and after chatting with a Phillipino Aussie friend in America online, I went back and took like a whole gulp of the Coke... And I suddenly remembered there was a HUGE black fly buzzing around in the house!! I don't think it's at the bottom of the glass cos they usually float when they drown, but just the thought of it in there is yeeeckiee... So there, I've wasted a whole glass (minus a gulp) of Coke...
I'm an insomniac!! That's what I am!! I can't sleep at nite & now I can't sleep in the day too!! Perhaps I shld stop drinking Coke, what with the caffeine & all... Perhaps it's just the nerves of sending my FIRST resume out the start of a new year!!
Yeah, I've finished the 5-page CV and 3-page Selection Criteria and god-knows-how-many-pages of Attachments. Here, they give u several questions as part of their selection criteria & u have to sell yourself to the company as accurately & as nicely as you possibly can. The more experience & the more successful your previous projects were, the higher the chances of you getting a step into the office for an interview. And it's totally a different ballgame when u're in that chair! ~sigh~ Wish me good luck...
Anyway, I was looking on the company's website for the opening hours... And get this, they had none. When I searched for it, it gave me a Christmas Closure Schedule.... and it stated Office Closed Until 31 Jan 2005!! And I'm supposed to get this resume in by tmrw!! What the...?!
Kris was gonna take me today during his lunch hour, but he smsd that he couldn't. When asked yesterday, the Manager didn't allow him to take 2hrs off at the end of the day. Today, the same Manager didn't allow him to take lunch 30mins longer. Kris was gonna rush home & send me to the office OVER LUNCH & rush back to work after. And the sod said NO! It's freegin' 30mins, for goodness' sake!! And Kris is even doing OT tonite!! I'm sooo going to burn the sod's car.... If I only know which one!!
So, Kris is gonna try one last time... He's gonna do that OT tonite like he's asked to... And tmrw, we're going into town early & rush back to work after. Let's see what the sod of a manager says now!!
