Haircut

On Sunday I managed to find one job to which I could apply.

In fact I suspect the same job had been advertised before, by the same agency, but as a permanent role. Maybe they couldn't find anyone because now they were advertising for a freelance manager for a very similar sounding job.

This is one of those agencies who use an 0870 number. For the permie job I managed to find a normal number for them and used that.

I wasn't too impressed when I called and spoke to the agency before so this time I merely sent off an email (with c.v.) and left it at that.

This morning I managed to book an appointment, for today, for a haircut at a well-known salon in Brighton. My view is that the less hair you have the more important it is that you have a good haircut. And it's even more important if you have an interview coming up.

As I no longer drive I took the train to Brighton. Whilst I was walking to the station (see, I don't just walk to cake shops) my mobile phone rang.

It was the agency to whom I'd sent that email yesterday. We had a good long chat. So long in fact, that I had to interrupt the agent and buy a ticket at the station, else I'd have missed my train. The agent seemed impressed and is sending my c.v. to her client.

So, that's a bite. Which is just as well as it was a typical Monday - nothing I could apply for.
