A difficult choice...
Sep. 9th, 2004 03:27 pmI'm currently in the centre of Guildford. If I want Internet access I could:
A) Join the hordes of sweaty people in "Quarks", paying six quid an hour for access in a small, grotty cafe.
B) Go round the corner to Guildford Library and sign up for temporary libray access, theeby gaining free Internet access in their spacious, quiet, LearnDirect room. And have a coffee somewhere else afterwards.
That'll be why I'm spodding form the third floor of Guildford Library then, on the third floor with all the windows open and fans running.
Mmm, coooool. ;)

Nearly forgot ;)
Sep. 9th, 2004 03:44 pmOh yes, and the reason I'm in Guildford? I've just finished that job interview that some of you knew about.
Did it go well? Well, the time flew past, and it felt like I didn't get a chance to make half the points I wanted to make. Except I probably did anyway. I gave reasonable answers to all the questions, and while there's no way to know whether my answers were what they were after, for the first time in my life I didn't feel on the defensive during an interview. And that's worth delling on: I had the skills they were looking for, I *know* I had the skills they were looking for and I felt bloody good doing my damndest telling them this! Yay me!
Regardless of the actual outcome, I gave a damn good interview and felt (and still feel) positive about myself and my abilities in that kind of situation for probably the first time in my life. I rock!
And I should get to know the outcome tomorrow. Whee! :)
