Early Start

I went to bed bloody early last night. I really needed to get some sleep, and I could not be arsed staying up to watch TV. In bed, I caught up with some reading and a bit of work on my laptop, and just hit the sack before 21:00.

So I've been up since the wee small hours, and what productive hours they have been! :)

Anyways, I have the job club again, so once more I have an early start. And as it's Thursday, my house plant will get its weekly spray of mist on its leaves. Only a little spray, as it's winter; but enough. I think my house plant appreciates the attention, because it's thriving.

Well, not so much "depend on" as "rule as if by magic," because magic - Technomancy - is what it is.

"You may meet people who are afraid of you." *pause for hysterical laughter*

Happy Birthday

Today is owlkeeper's birthday. Many Happy Returns!

Enthusiasm, Energy, Eagerness, Positivity and Passion

When I appear at the local job club, I show all of the above qualities and then some. Initiative, too. I know there are some people there who just seem to want to sit down and complain all the time - I haven't got time for that.

There is always something to be done; always something to share, or to do. In the case of the job club, that means seizing the initiative, and getting involved in the process of job hunting.

An example. I had to let the job club know that I have a dental appointment on Tuesday, hence I cannot attend then. Fair enough. Trouble is, I was required to show the notification - which I didn't have.

Cue, at 12:00, a brisk walk to the dentist's office, at the Coach House practice three streets away, a quick check and update of my home address and a quick return to the job club - up two flights of stairs.

The typical round journey to the Coach House from where the job club is housed is around ten, fifteen minutes. I made it there and back in less than five. If I'd actually run there and back, I suspect I'd have completed the journey between two consecutive ticks of the clock.

Yes, I am this fast. It comes from years of running from angry husbands ...

Oh. If you're reading this blog, and you're a prospective employer ... I'm holding nothing back in this blog. I cite XKCD issue 137 as my inspiration here.

If you don't like what you see, and don't care to employ me ... you know what? That's your hangups. Not mine.
