Meh - That's Life

So I've been working as a temp with Eastlink the last few weeks. It's been pretty good - I've been able to socialize with people - you have no idea how awesome that is! But that term is quickly coming to an end. Everyone else was sent home yesterday, less myself and one other woman. I take that as a good sign of my work. I did apply for a position that they have here, but who knows?


Last week I interviewed for a position with Emera. It sounded like I would have been really excellent at it, and I interviewed strongly for it. Unfortunately, I found out today that I didn't get it. Phooey.

I did get an interview with NS Power, on Friday, for a term position until end of December. Some sort of customer service project they are doing. Regular hours, 12$/hr, Mon-Fri. That would be okay to get me through the holidays.


And the Corps of Commissionaires is calling me. I applied there in September, because I've been one before, and I already have one of their training certificates. So heck, if I need to pay bills, who am I to argue? So I applied, and they're calling. I haven't been able to reach the woman to call her back today, but I did leave her a voicemail. I'll try again tomorrow.


And the Canadian Blood Services is hiring again. I'm applying again too. But I know a girl with a BSc in Bio that is also applying. Who do you think will win?


Stupid job market. I'm a damn good worker, with a lot of experience and knowledge behind me. This sucks the big one!
