Easy to get a job over the ditch at the moment?

^ not really. maybe. dunno. i applied for four jobs. heard nothing from two, got interviewed for two. offered one.

there's still a few jobs around but employers can be a bit more picky due to the flooding of the candidate pool. the public service is either awash with jobs or having to fund recruitment internally.

it's with my old employer but in a different area. it's a 12 month contract - hopefully long enough to ride out this recession and see a return to melbourne next year.

Fair enough. I was being a little cheeky, my previous boss where I am at the moment left under a bit of a cloud, then apparently appeared in NZ 3 months later in a higher level job.

Started back at uni today, not usually a great feeling.

But i remembered why i management lectures were enjoyable again. Sit at the back, talk shit, laugh at the continual references to Erickson and then leave lol

Good stuff dave

Dont pull an opti as my mates have called crush date stuff ups now lol.

aw lol. At least you've had dates though, mine are pretty few and far between.

This is bizarre though. I've never actually had a crush on someone who's turned out to show interest in me before. Thus, I am somewhat optimistic.

I bought a pair of Dita's pre-owned Giuseppe Zanotti boots

I'll be even happier when I get them

How do you know they were really hers? If they are, must have set you back a pretty penny.
