Consider yourself unworthy scum.

So I got a letter this weekend from the job interview people from Tuesday. I did not get a second interview. What little shreds of self-respect and confidence I had are now destroyed. To say I am depressed is an understatement.

I also got a little certificate from the government body which does background security checks on people who work in public buildings. It says I dont have any criminal convictions, nor outstanding warrants or charges. Handy to know. I handed it back to the temping agency and they gave me another form to fill out, and I handed that back, and got another form…and so it went on. Eventually, after I signed my name for the 4 millionth time, I was told that they’d send all those away and then I’d get the original certificate back, and then I’d be elligible for temp work at the government offices here in the city.

I am putting on weight. Despite walking everywhere and eating no chocolate or crisps, eating lots of fruit, and drinking loads of water etc…I still feel shit. I feel like Im intoxicated. Not in an alcohol kind of way, but in a tired, sluggish, overweight, bloated kind of way. I am eating loads of fresh fruit and veg, in a bid to clear my system but I am still just….*ugh*…..

Oh dear. Dont be too disheartened by not getting the job. It might not have been because of anything you did wrong. Better luck next time round.

RYN: I think it was the final death rattle of my cold /flu. I feel fine today, but if it comes back again I’ll be sure to go to the doctors 🙂

God I hated being on that, I was overqualified for everything they had listed. The only way to find a good job is to NETWORK. Friends, family, anyone.

Maybe you’re eating too much of the wrong kind of fruit. Apples for instance are very high in fructos.. that hightens your blood sugar, etc. Try sticking with melons and “clean” fruits, oranges are great, but don’t eat TOO many, the high acid content can hurt you. Grapes are good. Also, maybe you ARE cleansing your system. MOST of the time you feel WAY worse before you feel better, wait it out.

Hey. How come you havent written for so long? Come on, I need to know how the job hunting is going or if you got involved in another fracas at the job centre.
