CRAZY times: the JOB edition

I have never thought so many things can change so drastically in one week.

me after the trial shift being disappointed about
 the fact that someone else was recommended
 and they will probably choose that person

I wish I had more time (or, I should rather say - more will and more energy) to write about everything for you guys but I will do my best!

As you might remember from the last entry, I was really fed up with all the interviews and extremely disappointed by myself and, therefore, I had already agreed on one extremely boring job.

I don’t even want to remember all this now – how horrible it felt to realize that you will be doing something you just honestly hate for at least 30 hours per week. But then some realization stuck me – yes, probably I am just too proud for some jobs, and too lazy and too selfish and all that stuff. But after having already agreed on working this mega boring and horrible job and having promised to come back the next day, I suddenly received a call.

Apparently I sent my CV while still in Preston ages ago to some Japanese place in London and they wanted me to come for the interview if I am still looking for a job.

And I was like… ‘ermm… yes, okay, what time… where?!...’

Eventually it ended up agreeing on the interview on the day and time when I was supposed to start my new boring and horrible job.

I even forgot the number of the interviews like this that led me to nowhere so far. But, in the end, after calling my poor mum and all the possible friends and being scolded that it is me who has to decide, I literally quit my boring job only for the opportunity to have an interview, which, in best case would lead to a trial shift, which then might lead to a job. Hopefully!

Anyway, in the end, to cut the story short, I got the job in the Japanese shop/cafe called Yoyo Kitchen in West Acton. I will be selling sushi and Japanese sweets in the posh posh place of London where I won’t even probably be able to find a cheap place to live so don’t even ask me what time I will be waking up! But apparently our chef made sushi for Madonna and the others!

waiting for a train to go the interview and to get out the faraway land
- bloody zone 6 - where I get live in at the moment

And, yes, I know, it is not Tate Modern or something like that. But I am being realistic here.

And, at the moment, I am really happy to have crossed out one task from my long long to do list.

Probably, the funniest thing is that that CV was probably the first one I sent!

Hope it all goes well!

and this is what I got used to see when I finally get off the train

What a relief to have some more stable guidelines and schedule in my life again!

P.S.: There are still way more things I am looking for and doing but I will let you know once I know something for sure!

P.P.S.: A random joy of London - I rediscovered the joy of reading the books  I like for longer than 3 minutes on all these train journeys I get to take as you actually got to spend some time sitting/standing in one place and before that I would usually always have some excuses to distract me!
