It was a bit odd that Vicky from Hooked (the fish and chip shop that wanted to interview me today) just asked the same questions as she did on the phone when she rang, but I think she just wanted to meet me in person and it was probably the best interview I've had because it was more of an informal chat. Alice and Amanda went to look round an ex-motel which houses a lot of backpackers just before I went to work, and they really liked it so I said I'd trust t...

A girl from 'Hooked' fish and chips shop rang me earlier offering me an interview tomorrow, so if McDonalds don't want me, I have a backup plan! I felt like work today went pretty catastrophic- for the second time, I nearly set the bin on fire because Jonny told me to throw away the cigarette butts on the outside tables after customers had left them, and they hadn't been put out properly, and I smashed a glass, but at the end of the night both managers told...

I received a text this morning from a girl at work asking if she could work tonight's shift for me, if I did hers tomorrow, so a night off came earlier than I thought it would. I spent the morning preparing for my Macca's interview (I'm probably the only person that bothers to do so, so hopefully the extra effort pays off!) and then went to have a look round a house in St Kilda. The guy showing me around owned a company that rents out to backpackers so it so...

Now I've got more into a work routine, there hasn't been that much exciting things to report back on. I saw a rabbit on a guys shoulder walking down Chapel Street. I forced Alice and Amanda to move with me to a hostel which is above 'College Lawn Hotel' pub, and which doesn't feel like a hostel but more like what it is; living above a pub. The kitchen is quite a grotty student accommodation type kitchen, so it's probably quite good motivation to get our arses i...

I had a free trial at Fitness First (a gym) today, but because it was another girl doing it to the one who told me about it, I think she thought I had expressed some interest in signing up to one, when I was only going because the girl on the street had offered me a free session. She was telling me about all the free classes I could go to on my membership, so I thought maybe I got a 2 week trial or something, so it was a bit awkward when it came to her telling...
