Seeing Red
21:12 | Author: Tanith
I called Liam later in the afternoon when I tried to see if Betty’s heart was working again. It wasn’t. I knew this was going to be expensive. Liam’s friend and now also boss knows a bit about cars so when he brought Liam home from work they picked up a new ‘heart’ for my little Betty. It took a while but after while the operation was successful! My wonderful little purple (not blue, I don’t care what Liam, or the official papers, say) is alive again! And she is fitter then ever. No more rough mornings with a lot of coughs but finally getting on with it, everything runs a lot smoother now. Poor Betty cost me quite a bit lately but she is worth it, lets just hope this is the last of it for now.

Still not really very lucky at the job front, I called the guy who I had an interview with 2 weeks ago now (called him last Wednesday), I have to give it to English ‘politeness’ once again though, he pissed me off enormously. ‘Hi Adam, it’s Tanith, I came over for an interview last week and not heard back from you since, can you enlighten me of the progress?’ and he so puts himself right in there; ‘Tanith, Hi, yes, I was just going to call you!’. I did not care how the rest of the conversation went; I already figured out that I did not get the job but I just wanted to confirm this, plus he said that he would call. However; the nerves to say that you were going to call me while we both know that you were not! Just say that you are sorry that you did not get around to calling me (basically saying that you could not be bothered but in a polite way), but do not say that bullshit!

Liam and I were watching TV tonight and a commercial for RED driving instructors came by. ‘That’s not even that bad though, is it?’ Liam casually remarked. ‘No, it’s not’ I replied. To make a very long and boring story short I went to their website, gave them my details and am awaiting their phone call. Certainly does not hurt to hear what they are on about. Their website stated that I get my own free air-conditioned Vauxhall Astra (new model) which sounds pretty good! I know it will be stamped with pictures of RED on it but I don’t care, it’s a good, nippy little car and I get to make my own hours. So if I want to go back and study I can do it around those hours. It is not the best job in the world but with the economy being so terrible lately it all sounds pretty good. I will have my own office, unfortunately I don’t have a great desk but hey, I got my own little nippy awesome car!
