A Job seekers DIARY!?!?!?!

Hey all,

I've been gone for really wrong right??? Oh well if you had my last two weeks uyou would empathise
Apart from turning 22 the rest of my life has been quite hectic.22 can you feel teh age. David thanks I loved the card. Saw it on my first day of Jobo....and I just smiled and smiled sand smiled and even let out a little chuckle. Sorry NAthan and yes Denis the most wonderful guy I know remembered and beat you by a few days.........................

Ok so musch for all the sweet stuff. The Job seekers dieary seemed to have died a death.

Well after Kibet told me to get serious withthe job hunt, I didn't. Oh well I guess some things never change.
I guess my next tid bit of advice is be yourself.

I really wanted a job at a certain isp ....lets call it ISP DoDo.. SO I just ke[t reminding them i was alive and presently I got a call to go in on the 11th of October. So I did and found they were obviously not working it m\being Moi and all. Anywya we rescheduled to the 14th I gota na interview and was hired. Wow cool beans right???? WRONG!! Come the following day they were like no you come in Monday we'll discuss your tems and everythign and have your worstation ready then. So Monday i fika work they tell me what a miserable allowance they are offering me coz I'm on a trial period. But again I can't star that day., Work station bado si ready. Cool.Actually this was quite fortunate since on the Wednesday they offered me the job I dropped my CV of elsewhere. ANd the elswhere people gave me an interview on Friday. So come Monday they had called me for an interview with their general Manager so it was quite a relief I couldn't start at dodo yet. I go up to my interview speak to them and go home.

Tuesday Morning I'm roaring for work I fika I'm told where my worstation will be etc. And then the person I'm yapping to is called to some abrupt meeting.Shortly after she comes back and tells me sijui my workstation isn't ready AGAIN and due to internal issues I can't actually start work that day sijui she'll call me.the other people aslo called me and offered me an equally mearger income and their intern period was three months.

That is the last straw. I feel insulted. Anyway i go home and sleep. So after a lot of soul searching I decided to quit. Plus, I wroteto the other company and asked tehm to triple their offer if they expected me to join them. Obviously these letters were bith hamble and very sweet.,Just like me.

Surprise surprise the other people agreed to employ me on myterms. Thought For today:::: PRAY Just Pray It got me this far.
Anyway I'm stealing office time to write this blog so in case I get sacked yu guys better find me a new Job........
