Good News!

Post: # 115985Post Milims »

I got a new job! Actually I have 2 new jobs! lol! I start the first on Wed - as a secretary on a building site - it's only a temp job but as it's thru an agency it could lead to other things.
But the biggy is that I am now the new music technician at the local high school! It's a bit freaky really - I went to that school and my son starts in September - at the same time as I do! :shock: :lol: I've threatened to shout "yoo hoo mummys little darling" and wave frantically every time I see him - that should keep him out of my way! :wink:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Basically it involves being a roadie, a pooter buff, menacing parents for money - erm sorry - politely requesting payment for music lessons from the parents, arranging concerts (wonder if the school funds will stretch to AC/DC?), hanging out with a group of teen ogres - erm sorry - I mean mentoring and encouraging teenage musicians - that kind if stuff! :mrgreen:
I'm quite looking forward to being on site again - I've missed the smell! :mrgreen:

well done hope you will enjoy it, and hope you will be able to keep those builders in line, probably find they will be just like the school kids, and less mature :lol:

Erm, well as of Friday I'm up to 3 jobs! I only work mornings as the secretary and the electricians foreman told me to take my tools in on Monday as he has work for me in the afternoons! Talk about sublime to ridiculous - 3 jobs and all completely different!
