One door closes....
Well no, I didn't get the job. I didn't mind initially, but then they publicised the list of successful applicants.
Meh.
Rock beats scissors.
Bragging incompetence beats accomplished timidity.
I got some excellent feedback from the interviewers though, which will help me in my next quest...
There's a really interesting looking Student Adviser position going at the Uni. The pay is more than what I'm on now even with weekend loadings, regular hours, amazing (like, 17%) superannuation... and best yet, the campus is just down the road. If I walk to work most days, not only will I get fit from walking back up Lynton Avenue, which is almost steep enough to require a ladder, but I'll save at least $80 a month on petrol.
But I have to finish writing the application first. How on earth do you demonstrate "an understanding of the University environment" in writing? I was a student once, does that count??
Back to it then, it closes tomorrow. Eek.

I'd love to be able to walk to work (instead my ass is firmly planted in either car seat or office chair all day every day..)
