I'm sure I've used this fine Aztec Camera song as a post title before, but it remains a great song and a reasonable description of where we are now. Looking out the window I can see rain and the coming of darkness, and the approach of autumn at least is banging right on the door. Meanwhile I've found a couple of vacancies that look like the right kind of promising, I've done several binbags worth of paper shredding, re-organised my kitchen and made a start on sorting out the clothes mountain. I've even got as far as buying something that counts as suitable interview clothes, which is something that really bugs me to waste money on when I have a ton of stuff I'd rather be wearing. But that's the nature of the game - and it is a game, trying to make the right impression to be more likeable than any other candidate while not being sufficiently honest to scare them off! And as long as I can keep that in mind, that it's a game I've done all right at in the past when circumstances have required, I'm hopeful it'll turn out ok in the end.
