:(

I have decided that Sunday is the end of the week. Since, y'know, it's Friday and there's still no word from Nice Ice. And they said they would email/call by the end of the week.

So, yes, the end of the week is definitely Sunday. *nods*

Ain't it cute?

I can't believe I forgot to apply for that mystery shopper job. I was freaking out about sending my CV to HRT and trying to write the bestest cover letter ever for that potentially very interesting job at a skating rink. (I read fics. I know what happens in places like that. *nods*) And it completely slipped my mind. 
But it's probably for the best. That job really wasn't for me. I'm not the most observant... observer... among observers...? Uhm... Never mind. And I'm not a liar. I mean, I can lie if I want to. It's just that usually I don't. Want to. So my lies come out all half-assed and unconvincing. It's embarrassing really.

I did however remember to send my CV and cover letter to Nice Ice. :D Yes, in pdf format. Big thanks to MR for telling me how to go from doc to pdf and for sending me the link to CutePDF Writer.
I got an email from them today. They'll let me know by the end of next week if I should come for an interview. Hope my day job won't be considered a hindrance. *fingers crossed* I do after all work from home and have flexible hours, so I could take any shift, any day.
I wonder if ice skating is like driving a bike. I used to skate when I was younger. I even had my own skates. But that was years ago. Maybe I'll get a chance to find out.

Updates

This last week (since Thursday afternoon) my day job's been kicking me in the... Well, if I was a boy, I'd say nuts, but since I'm not... I had problems with video files for my episodes and it totally messed up my rhythm and I'm playing catch-up ever since. It's exhausting. And, of course, I have abnormally wordy episodes this week. Twice as large. Dialog lists for this soap usually have 30-35 pages. Now suddenly they have 58!?!?

I still don't know if I'll send my CV and photo for that host job. Photo's printed out, I just have to go and get it. CV's written and just needs to be printed. Envelope's ready and just needs to be addressed and taken to the post office.

No interesting ads, except maybe... Would I want to work for Nice Ice? It's a skating rink. And do I even know how to skate? I used to. Looong time ago. When I was shorter and thus closer to the ice. (Which is always a plus when there's a chance of falling down.)  But, dear Nice Ice, what's wrong with a doc format for CVs?
