🔥 Feeling hot hot hot 🔥
Made it to 2nd round 🥳🥳🥳🥳
It freaked me out that they called me 45 mins after my interview. I missed the call so I thought “well, I guess it didn’t take long to figure I wasn’t the right person”, but it was the opposite!!!
Next one is Friday with the COO, CEO and general manager. Here we go!
Soo cool. Fingers crossed for next round.
Should be ok hopefully 🤞🏾
That’s so exciting to hear. Isn’t it a great feeling, that rush of attention/recognition when you get called to progress in the job application process? Fingers crossed this will be successful and a good fit
Thanks so much! It’s been such a slog honestly. Hopefully it works out 🤞🏾
Ay good luck Gibsy! Crossing my fingers for you, but I doubt you’ll need it!
Interview in 15. Building is nice. Fairly easy to get to. Here we go!
I’m not super phased if it’s not a great company because I have other options, but it would be nice to get this over and done with.
Enjoy your day everyone ❤️
Good luck 🤞
Good luck for today!
Good luck🤞🤞🤞 thankfully it’s not at 2pm when you’d probably be a sweaty mess (like everyone will be)
Boiling hot today, had to put the rabbits inside
Good thing you did. You don’t want hot cross buns
I’d give you 50 angry upvotes if I could but I only have one
Omg I love them! Do they have names! Never stop posting pictures of these pretty bunnies!!! 😍😍😍😍 I’m overcome by the cuteness!
Dream, cloudy , Oreo, and speckles. Try guess which ones which
If you want to see more photos check my comment history there’s plenty
Ahhhhh thank you!!! I looking now to guess :D
I tried to send this before but my Internet killed itself
Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail and Peter.
Floppy
Not Flopsy?
Whoops. Too many kids. I shall edit that.
So on the back of her 3rd place last week (which was also last on account of there only being three people in the race) kidcalhoon1 qualified for district… Raced today, butterfly again, came dead last by half a lap again, got out of the pool smiling and asked if I could buy her a tshirt. Right on kid, again.
She’s awesome. Really. 🏆🏅
Woot woot, got called for an interview for a PTjob that’s much more in line with how I want to spend my time! Not the most uplifting role, but it’s so PT that I’ll have plenty of time/energy to pursue side gigs/temp/other roles. If I negotiate the wage right it will neatly cover my rent and all utilities, health insurance for just 2 days of work. This greatly pleases my brain that hates being tied down and loves variety, but also craves basic stability. Have one job to keep the lights on and a roof over my head, and a mix of other things for the rest of the week for everything else.
I’ve already got another job I’m gonna apply for which would fill in the other days for a few months.
Gosh I really hope it plays out that I get away with mixing and matching and don’t burn out again because I often feel thoroughly depressed thinking about how my working style really doesn’t fit in with most roles.
sending so much good luck your way 🍀🍀🍀
Nice one! I hope it ends up working out the way you want ⭐
Good luck! Sounds like that would be the perfect balance
Thank you, it sounds sad but being able to work part time is something I’ve looked forward to ever since getting residency.
It took me far too long to realise PT = part time and not personal trainer or public transport
Good on you though J_K, super happy for you!
I’d love to afford a personal trainer, my fitness is atrocious haha. Thank you, let’s hope in a couple weeks I can say I got the job
I don’t think it went well unfortunately. There were a handful of bright red flags also.
I have another later today so we’ll see how it goes 😔
Good to identify that stuff straight away though, better than finding out once you’re in the building.
Good luck for later.

I’d take pearl jam over the disaster that losing my virginity was lol
Just went outside to get the bins and there’s a cool breeze?
Was definitely expecting much worse. I know it’s still early but the current 30 does not feel like 30.
Yeah today was a scam. Meant to hit 38/39, or so everything keeps telling me. Then this morning they said it’d top out at 35, and where I am it only hit 30 an hour ago and is now getting colder
welcome to climate change. Our modelling is fucked, it’s all a best guess
Precisely! Thank you! Everytime someone in my family ponders why the weather is the way it is I’m just like “it’s fkn climate change”, how many time do I have to reiterate blah!
overcast AF out here, Apple said 31 but BOM said 25. Doesn’t feel 31.
Edit: Rain incoming too.
Rain is my fault, I watered my plants last night (and got bitten by bitey bugs)
Yeah I saw that on the radar…hope it cools things down a bit. Don’t think my evap system can deal with the humidity.
light rain falling in Carlton
Went for a walk for the novelty of feeling 30+ degrees at 9:30pm. Feels like this hasn’t happened all summer. Wish I lived near a beach, it’s night swim weather.
I used to live walking distance from one during lockdown. It was the absolute best thing.
1 movie down. Am exactly half way through my snacks. This is a huge success.
Interview was fine, but the baaaad af reviews on Glassdoor put me way off.
Also, pseudo-admin, it would be mainly call centre shit. No thanks.
Playing Tyrian 2000 instead, and looking at work more aligned with the area of study I’ll be going into.

pseudo jobs seem to be a bigger problem than ever 😡 at least they didn’t ask *you *for money
Tonight is the Dune 1 & 2 double feature. I see a nap for lunch and multiple afternoon coffees in my future.
I’m also taking my own popcorn. I just need to find an appropriate receptacle for it. I’m not paying $15 or whatever for Hoyts’ stale popcorn again… and also, I have Flavorcol at home now!
I had considered the same, however, didn’t want to sit for 3 additional hours for a movie I had seen twice already.
I want to be fresh for the new release if that makes sense.
Ooh - it’s happening at my local cinema also. Running time 345 minutes! So it’s going to go from 6pm to midnight!
Bachelor me would have done it. Just spontaneously decided to spend a work night doing watching two movies with no forward planning or coordination with others. To hell with the consequences! Unfortunately, responsible family-guy me cannot.
I’ll probably still go the double-feature route, but part one will be at home after the kids go to bed one evening, with part two being the next day.
Gonna watch part 1 at home before I go, then gold class part 2 so I can get the popcorn/coke at the midway point and not need to pee an hour in cause I drank the coke before the film even started.
Looking for someone at work to peer-review my code/build. I threw in the old “Please Consider” ad as a bit of fun.
Turns out that nobody under 40 remembers that entire range of Please Consider ads. Not even the sumo wrestlers in the truck. I think that’s a bit of a shame. While I’m not huge into advertising in general, those ads were good and I guess you’d say innocent by today’s advertising standards.
I can sympathise - I’ve used “I’ll get back to you Barry” a few times to blank stares…
That one would need the right timing and tone. Thankfully, nothing so catastrophic so as to need an “I’ll get back to you Barry” ever seems to happen to us.
Have just been enjoying my early morning cup of tea in the backyard. The last of the bats are flying overhead, the crisp cool air and scents of the early morning are lovely. Today will be not so fun weatherwise I think.
I just took Mr Woof for a walk and it was 21 degrees when we left and already up to 24 by the time we got back. I don’t think second walkies is happening today.
Cracker of a sunrise tho.
Left the main balcony door open, which I rarely do, and there’s not much cool air, just a lot of freeway traffic noise. It’s half past 12; how is the Eastern/Chandler still this loud? Maybe the air is carrying the sounds better tonight. Anyway, I hate it. I definitely miss that about the lockdowns. I’m over the noise and dust and general built up vibes. If the rental market wasn’t so obscene I’d have moved further out by now. I want to go back to the quiet suburbs. A townhouse or villa unit in some sleepy street would be lovely.
