Career stuff!
Oct. 28th, 2006 11:27 amHello!
For those who don't know - yesterday was my last day in my shitty-boring-stupid-sit-about-not-doing-anything-and-no-one-talks-to-me-job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yey!
For today, at 3 of the clock, I start a new and shiny job at J*ng1eurs Comedy Club, ten minutes from my house.
'But is that not the root of all evil? I hear you cry?' and 'But I see you have not properly written the name of the company in a paranoid attack of what-if-they-find-out-you-said-that!'
Well, I don't want to lose my job, like that Waterstones bloke, before I even start.
I have painted myself into a vey niche market, career wise, comedy admin. Which makes it hard to find work. But it also means that when I drop my CV into a comedy club, due to extreme desperation and hatred of my current job, they call me up for a chat,a chat which subsequently consists of 'when can you start' The answer being today at 3.
What's that - 'How much are you getting pai?' 'What is your job title' 'What hours are you working?'
Details, details.
Well, I'll be working 3-11 every Friday and Saturday, and 9-5 2 or 3 days during the week. These hours will explode over Christmas, menaing that even if it is less money than what I was on (and it can't be much less) I'll earn more over time. And if I'm goign to work a slightly crappy job, it might as well be in the area I want to be in and I can learn loads of new stuff, making me perfectly qualified for when the Stand are advertising, or I go into business by myself (or with others, but you know, not working for someone else)
And there's a career ladder and stuff and so if I need to stay in one place and do proper wolid work, I can.
Yey!!!!!!!!!!!
