Well, the news came in. Our office in Derby is definitely going to close. I need to have a new job before the end of June or we are screwed. Liam asked me if I wanted to go to uni instead of finding a different job. I would only need a part time job but as much as I want to, I also want to live decent and be able to move out not next student year, but the year after that. If I go on and take up a full course now we are not going anywhere, and god knows how long we would be stuck here. I am so not going to miss that place, even though some people are nice. It is time, to move on and hopefully moving up the ladder a bit.
I really hope there is something out there for me, something wonderful and good. Unfortunately Red did not turn out to be that great. I am not seeing Red anymore. It wasn’t even a job opportunity; they are just trying to sell you the driver instructor course. I know, I know, I should have know that they were screwing me over but hey, it gave me 2 hours off work and maybe an idea for the future. It all sounds very good and if you have plenty of customers, you can make a decent living, fairly good to say. But in these times, it is just not worth it. The course itself costs £3,678.00 which is just too enormous. There is no guaranty that you will have enough customers to pay for all your expenses and have enough left for your bills etc as well. And in all honesty, I don’t think I would make such a good teacher.
So not it is just waiting for the right opportunity to come along and hopefully impress the people with my letter and CV to get an invitation and after that, hopefully impress them face to face. Unfortunately as I discovered very recently, I seem to forget all the English words I have ever learned when nervous. This does not look good for me. It was so weird, I tried to think of normal English words and they all escaped my mind, even though I never have any problems with the English language, ever. I feel so ashamed; I should and could have done a lot better.
Please do not worry, I am just keeping the suspense, my story about Liam and me meeting will continue soon, hang in there!
