Default ASW moment - Finally :D

After being unemployed for 19 months, and 7 months of hard searching, handing my CV out all over the place, and applying for endless jobs, i got an interview last week, and given a job today!

Mostly bar work and abit of waiting tables for a beach front hotel!

only on short shifts for 2 week trial, but im hoping it gets better after that
started today 11am til 3pm

also doing monday 12pm til 2pm, 6pm til 9pm
tuesday 8am til 10am (serving breakfast), 12pm til 2pm
wednesday 12 til 2
thursday day off (Lucky as my misses has thursdays off too)
friday 12 til 2
and saturday 12 til 2

so all in all its around 18 hours a week at the moment, but im chuffed to say the least!

Just really hope it all works out for the best, and i get some full time shifts after the 2 week trial

CoolStoryBro and all that jazz

Yeh im at a point in my life where i dont really know what i want to do with my self! i have experience in a few fields ranging from photography to farming to IT and graphic design, so im always on the look out for something new

i worked in a night club behind a bar for 3 years before the manager took the piss so i walked out, applied for this job to tie me over til i find what i want to actually do!


Im sure theres something out there for me, im only 23, the world is my lobster (or is it oyster) lol

Well done mate

Being off work for 19 months would kill me, literally.

I couldn't even handle 5 months!

Didn't they pay you for that knowing you had no income?

You owe me £5, remember?
