Grecian Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Applied for about 20 colleges. Not one interview. I've got an HND already. Thought I'd try something different. I was willing to pay for the course. Not one interview. Do these fucking places run an agist policy or something? I'm 37. Thought it was a bit out of order. Even the college that I got the HND in didn't even give me an interview. I was applying for these courses in March \ April too. Â University admissions person here! Â When did you take your HND? Are the courses you're applying to related to it in any way? What sort of course are you applying for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Started a new job today. Woke up and my car had a flat battery, so I was late. First thing I did when I arrived was go to the bog and have a gargantuan shit, then went to reception and introduced myself. Good start I'd say.

Guest Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) At least on your first day you've a legitimate reason to shake everyone's hand. Preferably after washing yours. Â Edit: The woman in Tommy's sig looks like she's discovered the hand drier's on the blink and there are no paper towels.

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted October 18, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 18, 2016 So, the work load in my second year of uni is far greater than it was in my first year. I suppose that should have been obvious. I pissed the first year, averaging a 1st doing all my (essay based) assignments in a couple of hours on the day they're due. Second year is different. Now I'm being told to, like, go out and, like, journalist. Which is pretty difficult working a full time job in sales. So, I've decided to be super mediocre at my sales job until my boss sacks me. And I have furthermore decided that I will never again do a job I don't love after this one.  At least until I graduate and stop getting these sweet student finance payments, I guess.

Keith Houchen Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 So, after a couple of weeks of temping, the team leader pulled me aside for a chat. Having been in charge of a team which relied on temps, I know what a chat on a Friday means. Â Was all about to thank him for the chance and tell him how much I enjoyed working again when I was offered a permanent role. Delighted!

Undefeated Steak Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 That's a proper wrestling swerve right there. Nice one Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted October 28, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 28, 2016 Keith, I'm absolutely made up for you man. It sounds like it's been a bit of a slog recently, but really well done, you deserve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Cheers guy(s). I'm going to keep my full time employment record up by ensuring I have a wank in the bogs out of spite in every place I've worked. Â It's a very woman top heavy office, however I'd only shag a couple in there after a few pints. Expect a Waterboy "Week's later, I penetrated her" scenario.
