I'm applying for a job with the DWP
but unfortunately, they've redesigned their website, and the application form page has disappeared, along with the details i put on yesterday.
gah. Can't even get a job at the dole.

edit: Have downloaded a rtf version of it. Aaah. That's better.

Today I'm being interviewed for a job that may require me to forego female contact
and grow a dangerously unpleasant neckbeard.

your going to go for a job in game?

Our local GAME has girls that work there.
I think it's to help pull in the sweaty pocket miner demographic.

What I'm being interviewed for is far less social.

Steady on, I'm applying for a job, not selling my soul to Satan.

Linux tech support?

Now that's just an unreasonably accurate guess.
How did you know?
(I helped save b3ta! Noit happy baby orangutan, Thu 2 Jul 2009, 7:55, archived)
Because the only people who sport neckbeards are fatties and UNIX programmers, and you're no fatty.

Not yet.
Going from a job where I walk around for six hours a day to one where I sit down all day while consuming the same number of energy drinks is likely to leave me a little denser.

You're going to get diabetes.
Enjoy your feet while you can.

I may become the world's first crime-fighting linux techie just to keep the weight off.
Fancy becoming my sidekick?

I'm nobody's sidekick.

They do a pre-selection interview
before you even get a chance at a job, just to filter out the nutcases. I got offered the "pre-selection group choice" I think they called it - I turned it down for a proper job.

Good luck with it though. Have you tried ringing the jobcentre you applied for?
(I helped save b3ta! Bats, Thu 2 Jul 2009, 7:50, archived)
It's the one i sign on at now
Been there twice this week already. There's a 30/1 chance that I'll have an interview at TK Maxx in the next fortnight. Oh, the glamour....

*Hug*
I know how it is. Nowt more depressing than the jobcentre, except maybe the post office, and at least you can get out of there fairly quickly.
