Not snake related but I am so blooming happy I feel like crying right now! Infact I have whilst running round my b/f mums house swearing as I am so happy (also twisted my ankle dancing in the process!) Those that know me know I have been trying like hell to get a job since xmas when I had my last and trying even harder to get one realting to my degree/other passion besides reptiles.
All I can say is I finally did it (well 6 months but it's a heck of a start and a foot in the door!) And I got it in the city I really wanted to move to so that I could be with my b/f as he goes to uni there!
Now to look for snake racks and rubs to my guys can move in with me in a couple of months. |

No, but I did get many strange looks that I couldn't have cared less about! The dancing continued as I was driving and singing along to music in my car...(of course only while stopped at traffic lights) |

I start either the second or thrid week, just got to pick a date! Sadly for the tome being my snakes can't come with me so I will ahve to ask my sister nicely if she can do water changes and I will come home at weekends or something and feed them. Going to make me sad but I guess it's best for them at the moment, specially sinc ethe other options are a bit silly atm.
Congarts a2c7. ypu didn't fall over and hurt yourself whilst dancing like me did you? :P |

I got a phonecall yesterday offering me a job as well! Awesomesauce I thought..til I realised that my lazy days and carefree ways are over. It's as an assistant web designer for Clarks, who happen to operate not too far from where I live. Should have seen me when I got the phonecall! Dancing down the main street on town. |

Ah yes, the old "must have experience" trick. Unfortunately for you, rubbish jobs, I have experience in cleaning! TAKE THAT overly complicated application process. I used to participate in speed cleaning of betting shops, the earlier we got it done the earlier we could go home but we still got paid the same amount.

I am absolutely over the moon for you hun. All that persistance has finally paid off. Just think if you had got that 'must have previous experience' crappy toilet cleaning job then you wouldn't have applied for this one. It was meant to be.
Huge congratulations and good luck. When do you start? |

Again, congratulations - I can appreciate how good you must feel!
I was looking for any job actually lol, but cleaning toilet jobs were asking for previous experience (as in employed, not me at home cleaning my loo!) or a certificate, and supermarket jobs were asking for x y and z and I applied to so many and never heard anything back! it is so hard to find anything though atm :( I had also applied to many art related jobs too and heard nothing even when offering for free so I just kinda applied to this one thinking I won't get it but at least I tried and O.o; |
