Woot!

On Wednesday I start at the Department of Justice- Community Operations and Working with Children Check Unit. I will be processing Working with Children checks.

Thank God, a job! I am so relieved. It's decent pay, and 9am-5pm. And... it's something worthwhile. Even if it is boring (and it might not be, never know!) it's important work.

eyyy!

Did you get this through an agency or through a direct app?

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

The agency, it's technically for two weeks, but my consultant said they'll extend that to a few months.

Whee money!

[fnoo.livejournal.com]

Money is awesome!

Celebratory drinks!

Wait. You're sick, Kate's sick, I'm coming-on-sick.

Celebratory cup of teaaaa and a biscuit and a blankie! Woo!

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

And a kitten! Can we have celebratory kittens?

I am making mega chili of DEATH tonight with fresh chillies and garlic in it, if that doesn't clear my nose, nothing will!

[mc-shamo.livejournal.com]

I may have gone to the Nutshack today and got.... WASABI PEAS!!!!

Speaking of nose clearing.

[fnoo.livejournal.com]

Kittens are mandatory.

I could help add garlic. I'm good at adding garlic.

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

That was so worth it. At the time it was worth it for the company and cheering-up and for the discovery that it is actually possible to have to much garlic. After it has been worth it for the jokes, and telling the story :-)

[fnoo.livejournal.com]

We're making burritos tonight.

I'm totally adding garlic and extra chilli.

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

Actually, burritos is what I'm making tonight... COINCIDENCE?!?!

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

Loki!

Is that really on icanhascheezburger? Or did you just make it?

[fnoo.livejournal.com]

I just made it. Saved, not submitted, as there is technically no lol in that lolcat.

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

Is still awesome :-)

[mc-shamo.livejournal.com]

Yay! :-)

I got my renewal going through real soon. You clear it, you clear it good, you hear?

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

I think many, many renewals are going through soon, which is why they're hiring me!

Seamus has his coming up too.

[mc-shamo.livejournal.com]

Mine isn't so much a renewal....

My boss thought it'd be a good idea. The forms are still up at council, have to do something about that....

[clappamungus.livejournal.com]

That's really cool Chris. MONEY! WORK THAT WON'T MAKE YOU WANT TO KILL EVERYTHING! YAY!

[maggishness.livejournal.com]

I shall add another YAY YOU! to the bunch, shall I? :) *hugs*

[musosian.livejournal.com]

AWESOME

and temporary boring is manageable.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bounce_/]

That is fantastic!

[melbournian.livejournal.com]

Where will you be working?

I used to have a similar job processing police checks at the Victoria Police Centre on Flinders Street. People are often required to get both checks done.

I hope it goes well for you.

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I hope so too!

When you did the Police checks was it interesting? I'm hoping for interesting work and/or people, but failing that I'll just take the nice hourly rate! ;-)

[melbournian.livejournal.com]

The work was mostly very repetitive though there was the occasional interesting name or criminal record. Also gave me perspective as to the diversity of names, backgrounds and stuff for people from all over the place.

[laurenmitchell.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[http://users.livejournal.com/rin_tin_tin_/]

Very nice! Did you get it through Dixon's? Where will you be working?

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

Yup, through Dixon's, and I'm working on Exhibition st, near Bourke st, is that close to you at all?

[http://users.livejournal.com/rin_tin_tin_/]

I'm on Bourke St, near King at the moment. So, not too close. James and I usually get lunch at Crossway's on Thursdays, though, if you wanted to join us some time.

[mstakenidentity.livejournal.com]

That would be cool! I'll find out what my lunch hour is like and get back to you!
