Update: I still hate job-hunting.

The Facilities Management company called, and they've narrowed it down to me and one other applicant, so they want me to do a trial shift on Thursday. I'm not really sure how I'm going to wow them during a trial shift, but I'll do my best - at least I have work clothes thanks to my work at the Hospice. Still, I'm counting that as a successful interview, which I've never really had before - I haven't had a lot of interviews in my life, and the ones I've had weren't exactly disastrous, but I've never had one that led to the offer of a job, which always weighed on my nerves a little bit. But. Here we go. I do tend to do well in actual reception jobs, if a little tentative in unfamiliar jobs. But I can only do my best. And I should know by the end of the week if I've actually got the job.

That call has, however, thrown me completely out of the rhythm of the covering email I was writing.

I just spent the last hour trying to write an online cover letter for a profile for a jobs site, thinking it would be a general cover letter that anyone reading my profile would see. Only as I was about to hit send did I consider that actually it might be a specific cover letter, for the job I was applying for. And now I have to rewrite it all, in a more tailored way. alskdjaslkdfjl.

Keyboard smashes require the keys on the middle level, because k's and s's are the most relevant sounds to frustration. I can accept entire keyboard smashes that include k's and s's, but not something like pqwourqowiur or x,vmn,dxmvm. Although I think the x and punctuation does add something.
