How are you the wonderful Amberl?
Back in Bristol I hope - and, if you are. Do you fancy booze one night?

I am indeed back in Bristol
and we should definitely do booze whenever is good for you. I'm not bad thanks, did you enjoy the Stone Roses?

I did enjoy the Stone Roses.
Thanks for asking. I'd been looking forward to seeing them for years, and then it happened.

Let me know when is good for you!

I'm really glad they were a good watch
especially if you'd been looking forward to them for ages.

Pretty much anytime this week is good for me, away at the weekend, but back by next Tuesday.

Good luck with that job thingy.
Make sure they realise you're NAILS, and you'll walk it.

Innit.
And if you need a reference, I'll gladly sign a bit of scrap that says 'Amberl is NAILZ'

Fancy signing one for me that says 'actually, b3th is eminently employable.'?

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:43, Reply)

Of course.
I don't know in what capacity, but I'll provide a personal reference if that helps.

It might.
At the moment I've got my accountant and someone I used to work for a squillion years ago, who might or might not even remember my name.

My biggest client as a freelancer was my husband's company, and I'm not sure that's the most professional message ever...

Whereas some random from the Internet.....

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:50, Reply)

Obviously.

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:51, Reply)

Seriously, if I can help, I will.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:53, Reply)

Hang on, let me just gaz you something exciting...

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:54, Reply)

Okay, but I'm going to bed in a minute.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:54, Reply)

Thanks b3th!
I will be hugely disappointed if I don't get interviewed for this because I'm not sure what more they could ask for to be honest.
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:45, Reply)

Well, not that I want to bring you down or anything,
But this year so far, I've applied for loads of jobs that might as well have been advertised as 'we're looking for a candidate who is b3th', and I didn't get any of them.

Of course, that might be because I'm such a frightful bore they couldn't stand the thought of working with me...
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Mon 2 Jul 2012, 23:49, Reply)

This is true
I've applied for plenty of jobs like that, that might as well have been tailor made and got nowhere. But with this one I actually have extra experience in what they're looking for, qualifications that tie in etc. Fingers crossed!

Also on the boring bit, don't be ridiculous. You're just not showing them the appropriate cutting humour (high risk tactic right there of course.)
