Oi! so I’m back blog readers, i’ve been a busy bee, busy on me, hee hee. Okay enough of the the rhyming shit. It’s been my sixth week since my last chocolate and non-exercise regime. I have been going to gym now for 6 weeks and I am addicted. It is amazing how easily the body adapts and I cannot begin to explain how I don’t think I will ever be able to go without it, it will be like brushing my teeth, combing my hair and playing with my vibe, ha ha.

I have been to a couple of interviews, but like I last said, that I am the one who is now being ever so cautious and selective of the job that I choose. I just have to say that a lot of these agencies as well as employers surely know how to also waste a person’s time.

I get a call two weeks ago from this woman who said she got my c.v. off the net and can I please come and see them, possibly the next day, so I agreed and got the address. The next day she phoned to say that that unfortunately the director was inundated with meetings and we would therefore have to reschedule for another time. Next day, she calls again and says can I make it early in the morning, as in now, so I rush all the way to Riverside by taxi, as Im still without a car, as I arrive we go into this big office where she starts by apologising that the director could not make it as she had to rush off to another meeting.

? Anyway, she continues interviewing me, but seems a bit detached, I ask her what the job description is and she says there is none, as the job’s duties could vary from ordering dog bones to arranging air tickes, from polishing shoes to taking minutes. Well enough was enough, I thanked her for wasting my precious time once again and told her where to stick those dog bones. Have you ever!

Another interview in Lonehill for an attorney, well it was the interview from hell, not because I was interrogated with by hard rendering questions, but because I had to endure an hour and a half of listening to some eccentric attorney talking the entire time about his horses and what cases he has dealt with, the people he fired, what they did to get fired and all he did was in fact just bitch about people. Weird, weird, weird. I could not wait to leave, I felt like I was going to have a panic attack. I’m far too nice, I should have just stopped him in his tracks from the get go. Sorry, u have issues cheers.

So ja, it’s all been fun and games. I guess I should just wait for this year to come to an end and then begin my random search again. I would love to hear from other people with similar job search situations. Is it me, or this country full of crack pots?

Finding Memo

The reason why I have decided to name this particular post Memo is the fact that I am momentarily (MO) finding myself (ME) thus = MEMO. SHit and I havent even smoked any weed.
I quit my job with the seven Psychos, Dopey, Mopey, Grumpy, Slumpy, Moany, Groany and Sleezy, said my goodbyes and I cannot tell you how empowered and free I feel. What was my lesson learnt from this experience? Well I’ll answer that for you, most psychologists develop an interest in psychology and thus practice it, to delve into other people’s problems to run away from their own. They therefore are so fucked up, because they dont possess the time or energy to sort out their own issues.
I have now taken the time to work on ME for a change, started gym, eating healthful foods, reading a lot and just ’standing still’ this time around, to try understand what my real passion in this life is. I am not going to jump into the next job, just for the sake of having one, not this time anyway.

I have finally got a car, second hand Citi Golf and have started driving, so there is some sort of direction going on so far. I love my new sense of freedom and independence, cannot believe it took me this long, but I am a late bloomer.

Today I decided to walk to the gym, just for the heck of it and fell in love with a man who works for the JRA named Sipho, okay for real, I’m talking bullshit! While on my walk, I was harrassed and wolf whistled at by african men who were busy working on the road. Fuck! it grates me, I told them to all fuck off, now if they looked something along the lines of the gardener (Jesse Metcalfe) in Desperate Housewives that Gabrielle (Eva Langoria) has a love affair with, I don’t think I would’ve been that perturbed.

And on that note, I bid you all a good night.

Over and Out.
