the Job Chronicles part 3: Jinxed
Monday, December 12, 2005
Ok, i really think i'm jinxed or cursed or something. Cause this not getting a job thing is starting to get desperate. I mean today i went for my 10th interview at international plaza just beside tanjong pagar station. The first level is like a rather old shoppin centre but with watsons and bk. So i went up to the 39th storey at like 2.15 even though the interview was supposed to be at like 3. So i thought i was too early, went to this stairwell shaft and wat else, started singing la. the echoes were really good. Just hope nobody heard me. Then went down to buy a drink(the elevator gives you that numb feeling in your ears) and went to the toilet. Now it was really werid. The cubicle had a horizontal mirror at belt level. Wtf! Shouldnt it be way higher? Who wants to observe their dick while they're peeing? Honestly there are really stupid people in the world. Unless of course...really fat people cant see down past their blubber bellies so the mirror makes it easier for them to buckle up and stuff. Yeah.
Ok so i went back up and rang the doorbell. Cause all the offices were like apartments as well...dual function. So this small dog starts barking at me from inside so i kept making faces at it. Then the owner comes to the gate and askes if i'm malay. Aparently the dim-wit conveniently forgot to tell me that he had a bitch in his place so... well duh i couldnt work there. I really wanted that job. Supposedly, i would have to draw characters and backgrounds and animals and make plastercine models so that the company could turn it into digital animation. Yeah. But, with my foul luck, i'm still jobless.
On the way back i saw funny things. There was this guy in office wear, usin sling bag, the strap around his chest. He obviously works out. But then, it was like he was checkin for breast cancer. Fiddling and circling his er, pectoral, and he wouldnt give it a rest. And also, it wasnt the first time i've seen it, but there were these guys obviously from india, holding hands like everything was fine and dandy. I dunno, they get way too chummy.
Ouh yeah, forgot to say that i love my new hairstyle although the barber did a nasty job of it. I got the sides cut really short, almost cropped, trimmed like half a cm of my fringe, got the top cut and left the back. Dad and aunt arent too happy abt it. They say it makes me look like a mat gangster. Mueheheh.
