down with gardening yay for porn

got knocked back by the organic gardening farm.. turns out they want someone that knows stuff about plants... who'd a thunk it.. well it was worth a shot.. they were unbelievably nice about it - fucken hippies - they specified that they were after someone with both gardening qualifications AND a strong history of customer service.. good luck finding someone with ONE of those specifications let alone both.. out here, people don't go to fucken high school. on the up side.. i scored the job writing porn for websites. it is only part time, but i don't even have to leave the house and it's $25 US per hour, which is more than double what i'd be gettin workin at a vegetable farm.. and man.. i can do it in my pyjamas at four in the friggin morning if i want.. can't wait to start.. back to the down side again and i've been on the dole for three months now (hang on u judgemental fuck i supported myself for six months just on my life savings before resorting to welfare so fuck you and your little dog too), so i have to do "job search training" which is a full time three week course in ballarat 45 mins drive away.. when i said i couldn't afford the petrol, the guy told me 'then we'll give you a $50 fuel voucher per week and you can just come in every second day' which suits me fine.. i may even be elligible for some free computer training and perhaps some other course, like graphic design, which is surprisingly practical of centrelink.. god bless them - all that time i spent working two full time jobs, getting SHAFTED by the tax man and now i see some kind of return. so yes i'm enjoying utilising all your hard earned tax dollars - keep working please! i have no idea when this porn job starts.. i'm suspicious that they may be frauds who will give me some tasks then not pay me, so i'm not going off the dole until i'm certain it is genuine employment.. i also found out that i may be elligible to get my super out as i have been unemployed for over six months.. which would be insanely good timing although i may disagree with that statement if i actually live long enough to need it.. this week's career direction points to higher education.. like a double degree in arts/science.. buggered if i know whether i'll get round to it.. goddam uni entrance procedure is like trying to gain citizenship.. i have to start NOW if i want to have a hope of getting in for NEXT YEAR.. madness.. then there's the mortgage i still have to pay even though it's too far away for me to live in, then i'd have to pay rent in the city and somehow pay for books and stuff.. i gotta research scholarships and stuff.. mature age is a good thing apparently as there's heaps of help available.. i just have to friggin locate it!!!
