Not full time, if I work full time hours I get about 250. I work five days a week but my shifts vary from 4 to 10 hours.

The idea of upping your hours I feel would be counter good advice, if you're miserable now, full time will be utterly dreadful for you. Perhaps as a temporary fix, you do a variable amount of hours a week which could perhaps be done on fewer days. You might find, if its a possibility, moving your hours and giving you a third or a fourth day off in a week may benefit with the job searching. I can't really offer too much advice aside from that I was in a similar position and I do feel your pain. No friends have anything going on?

I'm management so I can't reduce my hours, or days. My shifts vary from 4 to 10 hours depending. And nah, no-one I know knows of anything going that'd be right for me :(

Well I really hope you find something! :yes:



WPMOT aside from the Bloodstock photos, I decided to try another curry dish in this country. This will be a mistake I will not make again. What is it with their lack of clue how to make a properly unhealthy curry. Always in a sauce that is single cream consistency. They need to jack it up with oil, chili powder, curry powder, more oil. Come on yolo.

Tuned in to Dimmu's stream. What a fucking disaster. :(

Yep, Bloodstock quality strikes again! I'd hope it's not that shit for the people actually there, but I know better than to hope that.

I think they're shit anyway. Rather have Old Man's Child.



However I am guessing you didn't see any of last years stream? Talk about stream/performance goblins. Only band I really was bothered about last year was Hell and the sodding sound cut out half way through the set and never returned. :(

Nah, Hell were the only band worth watching last year, but I was up in Scotland on holiday at the time so I didn't see the stream.

tbh, I didn't have too high hopes for a Bloodstock livestream.

I think the sound is so much better. Actually sounds like it's got a bit of meat with it this year. Last year it was just tinny and horrible. This is a great improvement on last year. No sympathy goes to Dimmu Borgir, never seen a band with so many sound clips. Could have just put a best of CD on and we could have saved on the flight.

But I've become even more terrified of change than I ever have been and it's all one big clusterfuck of doing absolutely nothing other than being entirely miserable and exhausted the whole time.
I need to do something I enjoy but I'm terrified I'm not good enough.
Just so we're clear this isn't me begging for validation, it's just a rant about how shitty I've been feeling the past 6 months or so.
I just need to grow a pair really.


I got a 7% pay rise in July, just saying :yes:

So, wpmo this week. It is Kerwe weekend this weekend where everyone congregates in the centre of town, gets utterly battered and there are amusements for the nippers. Essentially it's a carnival. I rather like going up there, but I also know how popular it is with 'er mates, the ones who now don't like me very much. So to avoid awkwardness of seeing them, and also the idea of going up on my one, I probably wont bother. Which is a shame because it will be my last one, and yeah fuck.
