Interview
Well, today I had my interview for K-Mart. First off I'd like to say that what happened to me does not normally happen, it only happened because of my mum (really, it's her fault). To start off with, I had to print off my resume before I left at 4. I didn't. So half way along driving there (we got to the round-a-bout near Holy Spirit school) I realised that I had forgotten it. By this time it was already 3:55pm, and I was meant to be at the place where they don't specifically say to go (all they say is "Coles Myer". I'm afraid DARWIN DOESN'T HAVE A COLES MYER). Anyway continued along hoping that dad would find it on the computer somewhere and not stumble onto things he isn't meant to see (:-P). Got to K-Mart's front desk and I said that I was there for an interview, blah blah blah, and I got the queeriest look from the woman at the desk. She had one of those, "I-don't-think-you-have-the-right-place" look. She asked some other woman that walked by about what it was I was really there. Bascially she told me that I was in the wrong place and that I had official made a fool of myself. Typical.

Went down to Coles and was directed up to where 9 other people were already being talked to. I kinda had walked in to a interview already going. SHIT HAPPENS! We kinda just sat there for around 10 minutes while the chick was going through overheads, I kinda just got bored and started to sing to who knows what. Then, she pulls some aptitude test on me. Who does she think she is? I nearly pissed myself laughing when the first question asked "Calculate the total amount of money that was collected for an hour". I did have to contain myself as I wouldn't normally do that, but you know. Went through the test alright, 'cept for one of them. It was the most confusing one I've ever seen.

To end a completely long boring story about my interview: The guy that I was sitting next to seemed about as sadistic as I am, and that the rest of the applicants are the most stupidiest people I've ever seen before.

I have an assignment due in tomorrow, and by god I don't want to do it. It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just... I don't want to do it. At first, I was going to do it, but things have kinda just spun out of control as I have around 3 assignments due in before Friday, an oral that I have to record and give to my english teacher. Not to mention I have to finish off a physics test that I did today (god, our physics teacher is stupid). On a more happier note, I'm going to finish 2nd out of my physics class (not counting the fact that there are only 3 people in the class). I would have finished first, but the stupid dude that marks the work marks it completely different in the way that I've been taught for the past 6 years. Very, VERY stupid. I feel like stabbing him.

I have a cold, and I don't feel the best I've felt, of course, this cold will go away the moment I've finished my exams. So I'll be sitting in the exam room, sneezing and trying to not let snot dribble down my face whilst trying to do exams. Whoo! I might end this kinda short now, as I know I'm not going to get as much sleep as I normally do. Only because I'll do my chemistry and then sift through a whole bunch of code that I have assigned myself to do so I can work out the commands for it. Fun times ahead.

Jarryd you poor fool! Why would you go to Kmart? I told you to go to Coles. But anyway, im sure I will hear the whole story from the bitches at the desk at work on Saturday anyway! Don't feel stupid...they are fat whores that need to either be eaten or stop eating. Either one would suffice.
But..im sure this will make you feel better. I failed my driving test! HOW EMBARRASSING! By one mark. If i had have looked in the mirror ONE MORE TIME wen i got some fucked up direction from the moustached asshole that was marking me on my driving, i would have passed. MOTHERFUCKER! I looked every fucking time, and more than SIX times...when I looked in the mirror...HE HAD HIS HEAD DOWN!
ok...Im over it.
Anyway...Have fun doing homework!
Love You

I had to do the same tests for when I got a job at Kmart. A girl and I finished them in seconds. The rest of the group took about 15 minutes.

Did you do the puzzle thing? Seeing how good you work in a group? Well let's just say I hate groups and took over. Something about leadership issues? *shrug*
Anyway, MY group finished it in about 2 minutes (they said the fastest ever) and the other's took like 8 minutes.

How fun.

Yeah, had to do those puzzles, and jesus our group sucked. It took us like 15 minutes to do it (me and some older guy did it ourselves).
