Dec. 10th, 2006 10:19 pmI don't understand why they want me to be a QA Coordinator. Or a District Manager. What happened to the jobs where you sat in a room and typed all day, or put on a skirt and did filing? I can't supply the skirt, really. But I could maybe do the jobs. Do they all have fancy names now that I can't decipher? Is that it?
All I really want is the addresses of the agencies so I can send them my CV and say 'HIRE ME PLZ, IN JANUARY'. And I think maybe I have found that, actually, so that's something to try. Now I just have to write cover letters. I FORGOT ABOUT THOSE. Really going to have to get a move on though, because I'm currently meant to be moving in 3 or 4 weeks. This would be a lot easier if I was actually in Nottingham, I think. The flaws in my plan are suddenly coming to light. Also there's that whole Christmas shopping/Yuletide/working thing to deal with. Dude.
The positive thing is that there are a few rooms at decent prices available on Gumtree, even discounting the ones in scary Radford. I'm assuming they'll still be there by January, or have been replaced with new ones, but again, ironically, there's not much point getting in touch until I've organised a job and know when I'll need the flat. Especially since I'm still not PLANNING to move till January, unless something incredibly unavoidable and impressive comes up. An angelic visitation perhaps. Telling me to go work in the Nottingham Dixons.
In conclusion, I can't tell if this is a terrible process or a terrible way of going about it. Or whether I'm doing this too early or too late. It doesn't feel like I'm doing it too early. On the plus side, I'm almost finished with that one application form (minus cover letter). Score!
Anyway. I'll probably just mail my CVs to the agencies and see what comes up, and maybe look for a flat regardless. I can afford to pay rent for a while with or without a job, after all. I should really get in touch with K and J and organise another trip up there. Just not next weekend, when I'll probably have Christmas stuff to do, or the Christmas weekend after it. Or the New Year's weekend. Argh.
Anyway. In more fun news, I went to see Casino Royale again. ( Spoilers )
