Gibberings CLXXXIII - Christmas Trees are for presents,not masturbating under. IMO..

Would you Adam and Eve it, Ive only gone and got another job, 2nd interview since my last job. 8o

Got very little sleep last night so dosed up on some ethylphenidate and 90mg of DHC, dont try this at home kiddies but I have never felt so calm and confident as that in a job interview before. Ive spoken to the agency who got me my previous job and they will provide a reference in as much as confirming the dates that i worked at my last place, and hopefully that will suffice. So glad that all this has happened relatively quickly and i didnt even have to tell my mum and stepdad about being out of work again, they already have more than enough worries of their own on their plate without me adding to them..

Who's taking bets on me lasting until 2015? Hah.

I've learned from my mistakes at my last place, believe me, and dont intend to repeat them in the new place. It's a completely different and far more suitable role, no ridiculous shifts like finishing @ 10.30 pm at night and then having to be in @ 6am the next day either. Really ironic and speaks volumes of the state of the job centre that ive managed to get a job before my benfits have even started coming through. Im not telling those fuckers ive got a job until the last second or I'll probably never see a penny of the £200 odd quid i must be due by now. :\
Better make sure i put something on the UJM website, or they could refuse payment on those grounds.

Also I'd better make the most of these last few days of freedom, try and reduce my kratom intake as much as possible, no more opi 'top ups' on top either, but to celebrate i will be having a wee blast on the old G in the evenings for a few days. I probably wont get much time for G sessions with a full time job to hold down again come next week. I'll have my priorities right from day 1 this time, i think/trust/hope and pray. :\

If anyone is surprised, you couldnt be any more surprised than myself, im absolutely amazed. Did F/A prep for the interview, made up answers to new questions on the spot, i guess the guy must have liked them. The money is nowhere near as good as the last place, but i really dont care about that, its plenty to live on, it's a far less stressful job, with no ridicilously exhausting shift patterns.

BTW Raas if you read this i actually prayed to God to give me another chance after the interview, just as i prayed to him for me to get the previous job. Im not saying im converted, but it's a freaky co-incidence at the very least. 8o

Congrats on the new job! :D For future reference, you're allowed an 11 hour break between shifts by law. We joke about it in the games industry all the time during crunch, when we don't go home until 2am, so we joke about not coming in 'til after lunch the next day. And then we go in early anyway to avoid being there all night the following day! Ah well.

Woo congrats mdb for the new job!
Is it a temp thing or more in the direction of a career?
 
cheers both, it'll depend on how things go as to how temporary or permanent it is. If I'm happy with the job I'll probably stick with it for at least 6 months or so. I need some signs of stabilty restoring to my CV and work history in general. I think I've been very lucky this time round to get another job again so quickly. Haven taken around 15 months to get back into work after leaving my previous long term employer, where I'd been for well over a decade.

Yeah i stitched myself up by agreeing to swap shifts to do a favour/repay a favour to someone else who had swapped shifts for me. When i agreed to the swap initially i didnt forsee that it would mean a sleepless night and turning up to work the next day very much the worse for wear, and being unlucky enough for the duty manager to notice my condition and to chose to monitor my work on that particular day when it was admittedly well below par. It was an isolated incident really, but because I'd already had a few sickies and several lates in my probationary period, it was just too many fuck ups in too short a space of time. 8(

Congrats MDB, i bet thats such a weight off your mind.. unemployed and xmas are not the nicest of places to be.. I thought i was going to be laid of only a couple of weeks ago and the chances of me finding work this close to Christmas would of been very slim. I really did start to panic, luckily it didnt pan out that way.. i didnt ask God for a thing either, do you reckon he owes me one now??

i think its the other way around, you owe him one prayer or something (your first born maybe? i think theres a conversion table somewhere)
 
Sweet, i'll make a list of stuff i want with FAO God on it next to the fireplace with Santas sherry, mince pie and carrot.. Id imagine they're pretty tight so St Nick can pass it on.. :)
 
When I was depressed I felt like I was in "spiritual debt" because my family was praying for me and putting so much energy into being concerned and helping me.

I'm not religious but my parents are and I often wonder if my life has been so blessed because of the effort they have put in. Even if its not praying as such but just love and caring and positive feelings for someone.

Edit: I kind of feel like the reason I didn't die is because I'm supposed to stick around and care for my parents.
