Tonight I emailed off my Job Application to the the ARL (Australian Rugby League).

The job is doing what I've been doing for free - teaching kids how to play Rugby League.
It is doing what I love doing - teaching it in schools.

I hope I get it!
1. Because I need the work,
2. How many people get paid to do what they love doing for free.

Well, I was wrong!

I recieved a phone call today asking me to attend an interview in Melbourne next Friday. That was quick.

All I have to do now is work out how I am going to get there :doh: Looks like hitch-hiking into Ballarat and catch the train! :rofl:

Such is life. :thumbsup:

Yep, 50% done!

I got a good feeling :o They usually bring guys down from Sydney or Brisbane to do this job. First time they have advertised in Victoria!

If they don't find any Victorians qualified to do it they will just send more from interstate again. (heard that from the inside).

Ken, how about you ask the footy teams sponser for a lift! Or more constructively some friend who knows your situation?
