Odette Finds Me a Job
My bids to find a job might finally have come to an awarding end. With it, my perception of Temping Agencies being uncaring has changed over the past few months to a more friendly and helping team. However, I must admit, if it wasn’t for a person’s solo persistency then the Temping Agencies wouldn’t see that desire and therefore, move on to more apt people. Today while I was out roaming the town and signing my life away to ‘Work For The Dole’ the prayer in my mind went aided.
Despite the project trying to find me work in the council at Campbelltown which would have been good I have been more inclined to accept the offer just dealt a couple of minutes ago. Odette from Ottoline Vance Personnel found me a job in an insurance company based in the City. From what I’ve heard thus far, they are looking for a General Administration Assistant that also creates Secretarial work as well as Word Processing. The company is called ‘H.I.H.’ which is one of the largest insurance companies in the City.
Wouldn’t it be funny if it was the same company with its own building that I tried to get a job from a year or two back, with their own security lock doors. Anyway, despite my wanting a casual job they have handed me this full time job on a platter with much room for promotion. Odette will call me early tomorrow morning and from there I will head to meet the employer for an interview in which, as being the lone participant, should get the job…
Flattery Opens Doors
There is one major bonus I have learnt with my crusades for finding work. When it comes to finding a job, it doesn’t hurt to use flattery on occasion as I have found within its sudden use these past few weeks, flattery indeed works. Nevertheless, of all the people I talk to 90% of them are ladies so it isn’t so hard to squeeze in an odd word of compliment or something to make them laugh and bring out my character.
Also, when it comes to Temping Agencies I have learnt that if you don’t get dealt a job within the first few weeks it will nigh be impossible. This is due to there being a certain job available on the day I arrive for my interview and because I am fresh in their minds they will think “Hey wait a minute, he’s perfect for the job” and give it to me straight away.
I guess I’m lucky and smart to have included so much talents into their decisive thoughts as it gave me more chances of open doors and ultimately has led to this opportunity with a big firm in the City. I know that I only have one or two suits to wear for my job in the City but I’m not self-conscious or too embarrassed about it. Despite my probably having to work a full week I am happy with the company I am heading to, the fact that I’m working in the City and the immense size of the company, that it will be easy to make friends. Easy to make friends, especially if I flatter the women as I do now…
Broke Again Before Payday
Before I move off this topic, I feel there is a tinge of déjà vu in the air regarding wealth. The same situation has arisen where there is only a couple of days until I get paid, yet I don’t have any money left to get a haircut or to pay for train fare. However, just like last time, Keith is broke because he hasn’t got a job anymore and Shawn along with the rest of them are also currency-free.
That leaves the option of Lyssa and my parents and as we should all understand by now, Lyssa is tight with money. I don’t want to repeat the same situation of her feeling inclined to demand her money back just to reap the reward of dominance and I don’t want to associate myself with her any more than I have to at this particular point, personal choice. Therefore, I am left with the obvious answer, borrowing money off my parents.
However, as $45 still hasn’t gone through my bank account and it is still looming in there for my expenditure I might have to add the $5 that I have left so that I can take it all out and spend it willingly and appropriately. With this money I will have enough to spend on a train ticket, eating money, the lot.
When my money comes through on Monday I will be able to buy myself some clothes for work and when I get paid from this job (If I do indeed get it) then I will buy some more clothes for work and for going out. Finally, I will be able to buy my laptop, a new home computer, software, fix my bike, head to the Gym and all the other wishes that I wish upon myself, finally…
A Kid Hides in My Yard
There was a guy just at my door a couple of minutes ago chasing a kid down the street who threw rocks at his house. Hearing no car I thought it to be Pari and Osama but opening the door to an angry looking guy who looked like a laborer from his dirtied clothes, I knew I was wrong in my assumption. Asking me if I had a little brother, he then told em that a kid ran into my front yard to hide from his obvious crime.
Trying to help out the guy as best I could, I turned on the front light as we looked for him around the corner of the fence but to no avail. The man lived up the street where the alleyway is and I gather it’s not Peregrine’s house, or maybe it was. That house is just prone for these kinds of attacks as it is situated on an alleyway. Anyway, he was a tradesman and after not being able to find the kid he made his way further down the street, screaming at the top of his lungs for the kid to show up out of the dark, obviously he never did.
