GTA: San Andreas

Saturday, October 30th, 2004

I swear if one more child asks me why they can’t have GTA:SA I’m gonna break something. It’s an 18, they’re not. Is that really a difficult concept? Is there some sort of street counting system in which 12 and 18 are interchangable? Bloody chavs are the worst
Me: “This is an […]

So long and thanks for all the freebies…

Sunday, October 17th, 2004

Well, it’s just coming into the last hour of my time at JS and I can’t wait to leave. Today has been incredibly quiet like a lot of recent weekends. There are some people here I’ll miss and some I really won’t. Several people have said ‘we must keep in touch’ but […]

Learning my Virginity

Tuesday, October 12th, 2004

It was my first day at Virgin Megastore today. It went quite well, I made a few mistakes but I was told it was expected. I’ve nearly got my head around the till and I’m sure I’ll be okay with it by the end of the week. It looks like it’s going […]

Like A Virgin

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

I had my interview this morning for Virgin and it went really well. The manager (update: he wasn’t the manager) seemed like a nice guy and it all sounded quite positive. During the interview I managed to look like an idiot in the following ways:
On being asked what my preference was on their […]

Interview time again

Wednesday, September 29th, 2004

I don’t remember if I wrote it in my diary or not but I didn’t get the job at Laing O’Rourke but as I mentioned yesterday I have put in CVs to a few shops. Today I got a call from Virgin inviting me to an interview tomorrow. I really hope I get […]

Retail

Tuesday, September 28th, 2004

I gave CVs in to several shops yesterday. It sounds like there are quite a lot of vacancies around so hopefully I should hear back soon. I’ve never worked in retail before, I’m quite looking forward to it. I applied to work in Game among others but I have heard bad things about […]

Good Interview

Wednesday, September 1st, 2004

I had my interview at Laing O’Rourke today. I think it went pretty well and even if I don’t get the job I’m chuffed to have got to the interview as they only interviewed about six or seven people out of about one hundred and twenty that applied. It sounds like a really […]

It’s all go

Saturday, June 19th, 2004

I’m glad to say that I’ve got an interview on Tuesday at Keyboard Graphics so I’ve been busily updating my portfolio. Then on the following Wednesday I have a meeting regarding the site I’m doing for Peppiatt Contracts Limited. Around these two meetings, I have to put up my work for e-merge ‘04, […]

The Joys of Work

Friday, December 19th, 2003

Firstly I would like to state for the record that The Flying Coffee Bean in
Blackfriars station does the best Mocha’s in London. Secondly while I’ve been
at work this week I’ve been doing quite a lot of my xmas shopping during my
lunchbreaks. My office is opposite Leather Lane market and there are some
interesting shops […]
