Job Interview Today!!!

So today I had a job interview. Yesterday I applied, and today I got a call for the interview. The interview went really well. The job is for onboard staff for BLEEP trains. This means I get to travel across Scotland for free. Ooo don't forget the uniform, one of the men in the interview comment on how smart they were. Um huh, well at least it means I won't have to buy more clothes for work. I do believe that I will have to wear a skirt though. Uh oh that could be trouble. And they have a hat too, a very interesting looking hat. Oh well it sounds like lots of fun.

Yesterday was an interesting day. It was laundry day and I of course am a complete moron and what should have taken me an hour at most to do took me up to 2 hours. So what did I do to take so long your wondering??? I forgot to push the button when I closed the dryer so I ended up sitting there while my clothes were not drying. Best part about it was by the time I figured it out my time had almost run out and I had to go and buy another token. Fantastic. On the plus side I got a lot of my book finished!!! It's a really good book too. I haven't been able to get into reading because of all the excitement but this allowed me some Sarah time.

Another feature of the hostel that I really like, besides the dryers (yeah right), and the amazingly creamy Scottish beer, is the movie room. This room has the most amazing hammock like seats. They are so comfy everyone just sits in there despite the crappy movie playing, just so that they can relax. There is a downside to this movie room though, as Cheryl and I have discovered. While Cheryl went to see what movie was coming on next I went into the room to have a seat. Problem being, because there was no movie it was very dark in there. After a good look around the room I chose to sit in the back and went to the 2nd seat in put my stuff down and turn to sit. Now for some reason the man sitting in the chair said nothing until after I had sat on him. Now I don't know if he was sleeping or if he didn't see me, all I know is that I did not see him at all, until he opened his mouth to smile at me though. Feeling terribly embarrassed I sat in the seat beside him to try and make it like my butt just went a little too far, but it was too funny to contain so I went outside to find Cheryl and tell her.

After we had a good laugh, we both went in, her leading the way. Now when I saw her going towards that back row I thought of saying something but I wanted to see if it had just been me or if this guy really was invisible. I went and sat in the next row, and Cheryl went on to sit on the invisible man. Now for those of you who may be doubting that this truly was the invisible man, let me tell you...Half way through the movie a girl came in and sat on him again. In any case, the guy wasn't complaining.

    So, when you get your job, we have to see that "smart" uniform.

    God bless

  2. HaHa...maybe he just lives on that seat? He may not have any real social life so people apolagizing to him for sitting on him may be all of it. :O Or maybe he wants to see which girl at hostel has the softest rear end? LoL
