I'm extremely bored, so much so that it is depressing. Having a job would be nice. but there is an issue of me being too bloody lazy to go out and look for work.well its either that or I am rather depressed and maybe need some help.
I prefer the lazy option. Although could use depression as an excuse. but I wont, just lazy. So I shall be looking for work from tomorrow onwards. According to my unemployment contract I have to actively look for work in order to be entitled to the money that they are giving me, which is fair enough.
Have a couple of problems though. Have to wait till I get my eye test done before I can find out if I am allowed to get a drivers license. If so then I can finally get around to getting my bike learners and get a bike, and maybe get a car if I go for my restricted as well. will probably make getting a job a lot easier - if it requires that I drive of course.
Ideal job would be what I'm good at, which is a PC Tech. Love problem solving and what not. Would love to be able to get a decent qualification though. At the moment I only have a Certificate in Computing. Getting an A+ cert would be nice. Maybe Network+ as well.Don't really care for programming at the moment, as I have already tried going for my B.I.T, failing miserably as well. Passed one paper out of six in my first year. Not good.
After that I found that I rather enjoyed just fixing PC rather than being able to program and design software - Although being able to do so would be great, It's not high on the need list. Repair is where it's at, as the majority of the population wouldn't know anything, mostly because they are too scared to try. Which is absurd, as everything is colour coded and even if it was all the same colour every plug is different, apart from PS2 keyboard and mouse plugs which are the same.
The only real difficulty is attaching the CPU heat sink to the mother board. Which can be a real pain sometimes. although there are a lot of heat sinks that can be screwed down now, which makes things a whole lot easier.
Arrghh, this started out as a, grr I'm bored post, and look what it turned into. Some lengthy crap about PC repair / Assembly. Which is what I would love to do.
Well tomorrow (Monday), I shall be applying at a couple of PC stores, and see if I can get employment, but first I must write up some bullshit Cover letter that makes them think I'm awesome - Which I am.
The only thing is, when I write like I am now, It flows fast, but when I want to write about myself for such a cover letter. I suck and cant think of anything to write. My younger brother wrote one, but it is not true for me, so going to write my own. Just hope that I can write a decent one and it will land me a job that I want.
There are two preferred places of employment that I would like to work at. Hunt Computer Services, last time I looked in there they were a small PC shop. looked like a nice place to start at least. and there is also Jensen Technical Services, another small place that would be nice to work at. I have already applied at both and never received a phone call from either. It would probably be best to try again or to go and see if they have any employment open. First I must go and get myself some freaking work clothes. Make myself look respectable and all. Probably get em from the warehouse.
I seem to have written a lot here, ah well. there will be no one to read it anyways. just passing time till I can watch something on History channel. Thats how bored I am
Also, just because I feel like writing it - I seem to have somehow screwed up my sleeping cycle which is seeming rather hard to set right. If I go to bed at "normal" times. 10pm-12am or whatever is normal / average. It seems that I will almost always wake at 1am-2:30am not sure why. Then I can not get back to sleep until about 6am which is quite annoying. Ah well. anyways, Until I think of something else to talk about this will be it. well or unless I go out riding again then there will be another update.
