Got knocked back by some company the other day. Got a letter saying that they didn't honestly think I was competent enough for it and that they wished me luck in the future. If a letter could sound anymore vacuous and bullshitting, let me know how.
I have been in Germany for a few days, where I went out with some friends - I also ended up dancing with and kissing a girl who would later disappear - and I never learned her name! God, I am filth.
Anyway, I have made a decision to apply to the Royal Navy to be an Officer, probably in intelligence. This may seem like a surprise to you (or anyone else that particularly cares
) but I'm fed up. I don't want to end up in telemarketing for the rest of my natural as fate seems to want me to be, I don't want to do any of those crappy graduate training schemes and end up a corporate drone at Royal Bank of Scotland. I want to be able to apply myself totally to something and get some sort of reward out of it, be it mental, physical or financial. Most of my friends are reacting in earnest shock at my decision, but to be honest, it feels like a good thing to do. Everything on the job market at the moment requires work experience, and since I can't get a job to get the frigging work experience (a lovely Catch 22) I want to do something special and rewarding without having to linger in part-time retail jobs for five years.
I love you all, and I miss the feel of bosoms on my face
