Dreadful Nonsense

"I've read your blog. it's really funny. you should write a column." - Jon Ronson


Day Five in the never ending tale of unemployment. Another day, another interview – this time with yet another agency. This lot seemed really keen, and halfway through our little chat, one of the women started yelling across at the rest of the people in the office that I was a “good one” and that I was sure to be “snapped up” soon. Which I decided to take as a good sign. They said a lot of things about job openings and lots of work on the horizon, which I will only believe when I see evidence. Let’s just say the phone hasn’t been exactly ringing off the handset since I got back home.

Good news though – the job interview that I went to yesterday obviously went as well as I had hoped it did, because they contacted the agency this morning to say that they’d like to see me again for a second interview. Apparently, they liked my “bubbly personality”. Which is a word I have never heard before when being applied to me. I think they might be thinking of someone else, but they can’t take back the offer now. Ha. Round Two takes place next Wednesday, when my suffocating suit will get a third airing.

In other news, try to look at this without scoffing. Although you never know. It might work.
