Another job interview.

[asimov (John)]

Well, I'm off to yet another job interview. This time as a farm-hand. Standard farm-hand wages with a 4 bedroom brick house/work-ute/meat/etc chucked in. If I get it that means I'll be moving from my current place of abode in the small town of Cummins SA to 'up further north' out in the middle of nowhere.....& THAT means even darker skies!!

I need a break here, been unemployed for close on 7 mths.

Here's hoping & touch wood etc etc!

The guy wanted me to just fax my resume etc to him but I sugested I drive the 1 hour or so to his place so he could 'check me out' in person....(& vice-versa)

Another interview as supervisor of yet another tuna processing factory next week if I fail with the farm-hand.

[h0ughy (David)]

I hope either one comes through for you soon!

[RB (Andrew)]

Yeah John hope it works out for you.
And even darker skies huh, sounds too good.

Good luck Asi...

Surely ... the law of averages suggests that with every job you apply for ... you're getting closer to landing one of 'em????

Maybe this is the one, matey. I hope so.

[asimov (John)]

Hi & thanks guys. I'm hoping for this farm job! Sounds good & I've done it before. The tuna processing job is in Port Lincoln (25-30000 people....my home town) I have NO intention of living there again...I'd rather drive the 130 km round trip each day If I land that job.

[asimov (John)]

Thanxx Matt. Even that guy murphy must allow a bit of 'luck' every now & then. He-he!

[davidpretorius]

good luck with the interview, let us know how you go!!!

as long as they will let you have some time off in march for the mini star camp!

[[1ponders] (Paul)]

Good luck Asimov. I hope you get it, the country one that is. I look forward to your impending Canon 350D purchase from your first fortnights wages. Priorities

[acropolite (Phil)]

Good Luck Asi, a new job and darker skies sounds good.

[asimov (John)]

I'm back from the interview & quite frankly, I think I did ok (so does my wife whom I took with me to the interview). He seemed pretty impressed with my qualifications & was talking like I already had the job..but like he said, "It doesn't really matter what your qualifications are, I'm looking for a person with the right attitude"..hopefully I presented that to him. The bloke & his wife were very nice folk & I look forward to working for them. He has 2 more guys to interview & I guess the best man will win. Now it's time to play the waiting game.

[davidpretorius]

fingers crossed!

[asimov (John)]

Toes as well!

As you say, the best man will get the job. So start gettin' ready!!!!

I'm willing you over the line and preparing to toast your success

[norm]

Good Luck with the interview! I hope it all works out for you.

[Robert_T]

Hi Asi, best of luck. Farm Hand sounds like hard work - hope you're not to stuffed to drag out the acro 6in when darkness falls


cheers,

[asimov (John)]

I wanna thank you guys for all your well wishes on this, means a lot to me. I am sending forth that positive thinking to my new boss saying i'm the best man.....forget the other guys that may have better 'qualifications'!...CHOOSE ME! CHOOSE ME!

At least that's the theory anyhow..

[astroron (Ron)]
