Homeless Wherers - all are welcome, old and new!

When the cats away the dog will play.

Only problem is that the jobs available over there are with BPO outfits like Teleperformance, and are usually some form of call centre job. Would be ironic though, that's the very kind of job that got me to Ireland in the first place almost thirteen years ago…

Checked Aldi this afternoon. Nice hourly wage but the amount of hours they offer in my local stores (24 per week) isn't enough to cover the rent. And I can't rely on "additional hours are often available" unfortunately.

Throwing out two Hail Marys though (the American Football kind, not the prayer), just typing up speculative applications to two companies I'm massively interested in. The worst they can say is no.

My non existent sleeping schedule has kicked into overdrive . I got up around 8 pm so I’ll be here to the wee small hours .

Either way, back to Galaxy Zoo here. At least that way, I can say that I accomplished something today…

It's been a long time since I worked in a supermarket but when I did there was always extra hours, same in all the retail places I've worked in. So I wouldn't be put off by the 24 hrs. Coming into summer they'll be looking for holiday cover, but do apply now before schools finish.

Best of luck.

Nespresso time on my hotel balcony, working this afternoon and thought that I could swap to stay home, but don’t think that’s gonna happen due to staff shortage.

My day started yesterday when the OH got up to go traveling, she had 3 flights to get her into Sweden, so when I finally got a message that he had taken her uber from the airport and checked in, I was able to go to sleep. She has gone to a family wedding that I was supposed to attend, but no days off granted this month.

Yep, damp cold auld day.

I only mentioned the weather because I'm going off piste helicopter snowboarding in the Alps in the afternoon. That rain should be good snow up there.

Just need to close that 30 million deal before 11:30am and I'm done for the weekend.

They did, rent in my place is supposedly to high. Never mind the fact that the rent I’m paying is significantly below average here in Cork, or the fact that the rent support/HAP limits have been too low to cover rent since all the way back in 2016, when I had my first run-in with social services here in Ireland. I pointed all of that out and produced nearly a kilogram of documentation to back up my arguments, but to no avail.

Hope the issues the MRI brought up are not too serious, Suvi. Keeping my fingers crossed that you get those sorted quickly.

Watching the chase and the dark destroyer completely threw the final chase as he had already taken out the whole team so it was only 4 K in the pot .
