last night i went on a date with a guy wearing a pink tyedyed teeshirt that has sid vicious on it.
he had once been punched by billy idol.
as nice as he was, i cant take a man in a pink teeshirt seriously. he asked about a second date and i turned him down.
anyway, i need some career advice...
see, julie had a huge temper tantrum the other day and from it got herself a payrise and a reduction in hours.
but because she is reducing her hours by half im going to be taking on nearly all of her work.
and you know what my boss has offered me to take over nearly all of the accountants job? a whopping great 15p an hour. woohoo! he also said hed send me on courses to learn to be a fully trained acountant.
but i dont want to be an accountant.
i already have my degree, and with my plans to work at the ministry of education doing policy writing, i dont see why i would want to go back to school to learn something i dont want to learn, in a field that i dont want to work in, for a man i dont want to work for, in a place i dont want to live.
i hate the area where i live with a vengence. im bored and lonely and isolated. there is nothing to do and no one to do it with. i think id go crazy staying here for another 3 years.
also, the public transport is shit and on my wages i cant afford to buy a car (yes, even with the overly generous 15p an hour) without going into debt for at least 5 years. and why would i want to go into debt when i dont know how long im even going to be living in this shithole country for. id rather go to college to learn spanish so i can move to barcelona than stay in this rat infested shithole.
i have to go in to work on monday and tell him all my plans for the rest of my life, all of which i have been avoiding making concrete because i hate formal plans.
plus, when he was talking out senarios with me, one of his ideas was to get in a full time accountant and drop my hours down to 20 a week. which is shit and im sure he cant do that while im on a full time contract.
and i hate my stupid job and my stupid boss.
anyway, i was thinking about partially accepting his offer, the pay rise at least, and the extra work, on the condition that he gets me a company car.
im sure he will have a heart attack, and if he is dead then i dont have to worry.
but aside from that what do i do?
i dont want to give him 3 months notice.
i dont want my hours reduced.
i dont want him to be all funny with me about it.
and i think over the 2 years i have worked for him i deserve more than just a 15p payrise.
i mean, thats not a pay rise, that is a gesture!
god damn!

So how can be happy if you hate your job and your boss ?
I hope I have understand all what you said. But if I was you.
I take him the three months. I Save up money a lot. I have three months to begin to learn spanish and to find in Barcelona a rent very cheap. In three months, I will go in Barcelona.
There are spanish people here. They will give you some good advices about rents I think.
If it is to hard for the moment. deal with your boss for the compagny car. But will you happy ? You must know that. Will you less "bored and lonely and isolated" ?
London is so quite wonderful ! you will have a very nice time in this city. I just LOVE this city !
thanks a lot for what you say
