Didn't get the job, most likely due to my TAFE schedule not aligning with their work hours. Which is fair, but I am sad about it.
I channelled the disappointment into more job applications so there's that I guess.

Commiserations mate.
If I can give you one bit of advice it would be to get your drivers licence. That was gold 30 years ago and it's still up there today.
OK ive done 2 hours work today.
Now it's chill out time.
You and me both!
Though I am at home and have been for awhile now.
Someone's about to head to the park and jump in puddles (and probably need a bath).
Looking after hambam this w/e.
Little cousin's car was stolen when she was looking after him recently and the place next door was done too. They entered the place (she was alone) and demanded keys. So none of aunt's grandkids are (very understandably) keen on looking after him so doggo is stuck with me again.
These little thieving cunts are just in it for joyriding completely unaware (or are they) of the trauma they leave.
A friend is trying to get rid of his manual lancer but doesn't want to deal with the sales process.
I just replaced my car door lock after some cunt snapped a scissor tip off in it.
It sucks and I'm sorry to hear that.
It's getting worse and worse and I don't know if the changes they made or going to make are going to make anything better.
Nothing worse than not feeling safe at home.
Cheers everyone 🍺 May youse have a rockin' good night!

can't get up. So sad
This is so challenging for you. Thoughts and prayers
So cute!!! Ears look so soft!
Such a pretty puss! 😍😍😍
Not quite sure how to read his body language
It means he's relaxed but alert just in case you open the fridge door.
He’s clearly about to die of starvation and is pointing to the bowl where the food should be but is not
I know that look, definitely dying of hunger
He's trying to decide if he would prefer to paint the walls a sage or a mint green.
Man, waking up to the hairball hocking sound sucks hey.
My lunch break today is 3 hours.
I could do with a nap lol
3 assessments passed, 2 to go.
2 quizzes passed. Next one opens Monday, and the other opens in May.
Im getting there!
I think I'm in trouble. I used a box to post my coffee grinder and Miss Meow has noticed it missing. It's better to beg forgiveness than ask permission, right?
I'm starting to get excited about the move, thinking of all the things I can do. I have a note book with all my ideas and plans. :) Do some courses. Go for walks that don't have shopping involved.
I will have my own office /work area which is a huge thing. 🙂
I very much dislike being the door person where I work. It's company policy to check receipts, so of course I'm going to ask to see yours.
People have the freedom to say no, but to be rude is another thing. Some of us are getting paid minimum wage and don't want to lose our jobs because we didn't do what the company wants us to do. Fuck capitalism and fuck entitled people.
That job would suck balls, man. I swear I'm that person who's got their bags open and receipt handy 3 metre from you to save the hassle from you asking. I always add in "have a great day mate".
Baleeted
so many hugs
watch some art on tv perhaps 🙂 or read art books
Absolutely fuck this 88% humidity, wtf. Literally woke up from all the sweat
Lentish is going good for me. Sugar cravings are out of my system and the bread obsession is waning dramatically. I do have the occasional wholemeal or multigrain toast but atleast I'm not consuming bread products daily. Crumpets, English muffins, pizza (breads delicious cousins) have been eliminated entirely. First week and a bit was hard and I succumbed a few times to the local bakery bread but now it's smooth sailing.
I feel good. A bit tired but good.
For a true Lent experience, have some pumpernickel.
It's terrible, so any guilt is countered by the taste.
No thanks. I love rye bread but that brick tastes like shit. Not fit for human consumption.
After telling myself I'd have an early night, I ended up making a breakthrough on website styles. So instead of staying up trying to figure out how to change a button, I was up doing all this formatting work I'd been stuck on for the first half of the week.
Opps, got distracted watching youtube videos, must finish this work so I can get out of here
Do I play toilet paper chicken or go to the store before the proper shop in the morning?
Got my cannabis script yesterday, did a bit of a wake n' bake this morning.
Boy howdy was I not ready. Been using some weed gifted to me from a friend and it was fine...but this clinical shit is on a different level.
Thankfully I tried the Sativa strain which is a decently energizing buzz....
AC Shadows Initial Reactions after 4 hours of play.
Big world, but doesn't feel too big.
Characters are interesting enough.
Cool little side quests and things.
Story is pretty cliche, but we'll see what happens.
Parkour is smooth and feels a bit more real than the previous ones.
Combat is more challenging than previously. You can see they tried emulating Ghost of Tsushima, but fell short. Not a criticism as GoT had some of the best combat I've every played.
So far enjoying it.
But what about all the wOkE?
If a game upsets weebs and neckbeards, you know it's doing something right.
wow I've had a few tonight after an awesome work event (love that these guys are so much more sociable with our client). Pretty tipsy but this is the good thing about having easy PT close to home. Everyone looks pretty attractive through these wine goggles.
Gonna catch up on the Severence finale shortly and maybe The Pitt and then catch up with an old school friend Sat night and Sun. ☺️ Times like today I feel a bit like less of a loser and more of a part of Melbourne
It's so quiet at work today. I love it.
Not a mouse was stirring....

Coffee grinder is packed and ready to go to its new home. Washing is on. Overgrown terrarium got a bit of a clean up. Next up is a trip to the post office and free food market, then the afternoon is free for who knows what.
