Its a comedy when in the current job market you don’t get short listed for a job you get long listed. Which means that they weed out the total nut cases and just leave us halfwits to do an assessment day (all this for a simple clerical job WTF)
My assessment day is the 23rd and then you hear about 5 days after that to whether you have been short listed.
Ah the comedy of the recession, I do know someone that has gone from being an operations manager to working as an admin clerk at York hospital. Many years ago I was a research assistant there and I had a team of admin minions in pale green shirts to file case notes for me.
Looking back I think the reason they made them wear the shirts was to differentiate them from the mental health patients that could be found wondering the halls. One of the first things I learnt was they used to make the mental health patients wear slippers so that they were identifiable and couldn’t get too far in the grounds.
My Ex designed a wing of a secure unit( a madman designing an asylum I know crazy but true and I did the interior design it was at that time that I discovered it was hard to tell between the nurses and the patients. Funny old world really.
Jahm mentioned the 19/20 game in Lermontov’s journal its nice to know the numbers game is still alive and well everywhere in the world. The best place to use this game is Newcastle England as it is a town full of slappers that will do anything for half a cider and a couple of cigs so having to pretend to like the bint in question doesn’t even have to come into the equation. As a friend said to me the other day Cheryl Cole (girls allowed) hasn’t really changed, if she was back in the big market she would still be looking for a fuck and a fight on a Friday night
