As this is the first lunch break I've had at work where we've been in, I'm spending some time to update this, as I can't play the sims 2 or neopets.
I applied for a job at the University, because![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cat_in_a_box said I should. So I did! It was for an admin/clerical position at the Uni, and was also linked to Web Design.
I had an interview on the 23rd of May, and it was great. They told me that I'd know by the end of the day, and I went home to bed. I woke up to a phone call, but it was the department telling me that another candidate had been unable to attend due to illness, and I would therefore know by the end of the week.
I spent the rest of the week not thinking about it because I had an exam on Friday [my last one] and was too busy thinking about that instead. I completely forgot until I got out of the exam to find 4 missed calls on my mobile from a private number. I calledmilfos who found me the number and outside the Old Bar I called them back. They told me I had got the job, and that also I didn't have to change my hair colour! ^___^
I then got very very very drunk in the Old Bar, then the Bricklayers, and then passed out while lots of people watched Queer As Folk.
I started on Monday, and for my first day, the lady that is above me, R, was hungover, and it was her birthday, we went out for lunch to [Thai Edge] and spent TWO HOURS out of the office, and then we drunk wine on someone else's suggestion. I'd heard rumours about this department's reputation [Knowledge Transfer Unit] but I wasn't sure how true they were. They are most definately true, as there are cans of Carling in the fridge.
So I've joined the leagues of people working in a University.nalsa, I'm always on campus, so we can do lunch again now I'm not studying! I have a gorgeous view from up here!
Thanks to everyone that sent me good luck / congratulations. It's fantastic here, I just have to get used to the hours ;) [8.45 - 5]
