if it's not on your chosen career path
and it would interfere with your enjoyment of life, such as having funky coloured hair and not working for a mega bitch I'd say not to go for it.

edit: I realise that this contradicts what I said above. I meant the job, rather than the interview. Although if you have no intention of taking the job then there is little point in going to the interview.

yeah that's the thing, if I go to the interview I have to dye my hair normal again
which is a faff if I never intend to go for the job.

But I'm so fed up here that this could be the change I need. However, I may regret sacking off my safe boring job that allowed me to laze around on b3ta all day for a job where I actually have to do work. And possibly for a massive bitch.

At some point you'll actually have to work.
Chances are at some point you'll actually have to work for a massive bastard/bitch. Might just as well start now as any other point.

yeah true
it's just because it's not in my chosen career so I won't be climing any ladders. However, as I only intend to stay there until I can start my chosen career even if she was a massive bitch I wouldn't have to suffer that long.

Fair point but I'm studying at the moment
and I can't pursue my career until I've finished studying, so it's not an empty threat in my case, it's just a matter of time. And being able to get an internship.

I was just joshing. You will do it, you have put to much work in not to.

If your chosen career is self-employment
In the areas you have mentioned, you really should develop a strong second option. Not being negative, just be realistic. You'll need a decent job to support you in the years it takes to get going, for a start.

No it's not
I'm studying to be an interior designer, so when I've got my degree I'm going to try and pursue that as a career. The corset making and the cupcakery are just little side projects that are unlikely to properly take off.

fair play, then.
