ACC interview
Have an interview today with Aberdeen City Council (my 4th). This is with planning department. I have done my research in how my experience matches. I want/need this job. It's all about the future and embracing possibilities. Right now I am in Starbucks with a slightly greasy (but tasty) tuna sandwich. Wish me luck on this exciting adventure.....

Brand
Same brand but in different location. My seat was too soft so I moved. Brought my own austerity biscuits!

Lost
Further to my earlier post about golf being a rediscovered passion I went out and played 6 holes. Mixed bag but more good than bad. I am ab idly out of practice and lost my sand iron. Actually list it. Have no idea how. I was in no bunkers. Maybe Bob Bob Sandy and Joe will find it?!
Projects
During this period of being 'between jobs' I have decided to upskill myself. Chosen areas for improvement are:
Gardening
Golfing
This project is designed to keep me sane.
Gibber gibber wooooosh....easier said than done

Passion
In interviews and in cover letters I talk about my 'passion' for recruitment. More correct would be my passion for getting a job for me. I am, once again, looking for that gold pot. I have followed this rainbow for years. Talking of passion now that I have additional enforced spare time I have rediscovered golf. It is going well but my putting needs improving and I still have a wee slice. Occasionally when I catch it well I draw the ball. That makes me happy. Happy like getting a job!

History repeating
Well, that is me without a job yet again. Last contract was maternity cover and finished last week. So here we go. All starts this morning with a visit to the job centre. Aww bless....poor Davie. What lies ahead in this city of shrinking opportunity? Not much with that attitude! No doubt more daily routines will be established. Have to keep trying because I AM!
