Um. yays.
Okay, so them at the place I've been working at have finally made a decision. As of next year, I will be permanently employed. (yays) but not as a driver, (boos) as a storeman. Well, cool, I ain't complaining much. There's a bit of tangled goings-on in there that I may explain soon, but simply - I'm going to have a real job ( Read more... ) -
Hmm....
Well, not wanting to be too optimistic at this point, but there is some shuffling going on in the workplace that makes it seem more likely that I will get permanent work at this place. Seems their own stores guy has had his work visa expire and won't be able to work legally for them for another seven weeks or so, until they sort it out. And they're ( Read more... ) -

Book_eater: This week, father. I... I have asked for ( Read more... )
