I like Mondays now. It's the day when I set the stall out for the week. The disappointments of last weeks failures put behind me, assured that success lies just around the corner. Or something. My optimism this week lasted until 11:00 am. The jobs advertised last week are still there, some unchanged, some slightly amended. Now I've been very coy about the agencies I've been using - mainly because of paranoia. If they were to discover what I was saying about them I reckon they'd be even less inclined (assuming that a reduction from "not inclined at all" was possible) to assist in my search for a job, Today though? I'm fucking tempted. But I won't. Well not at the moment anyway. I think if I'm still sitting here unemployed at Christmas then Angry Since 1967 is having an awards ceremony, honouring the worst recruitment agencies. People are sometimes too keen to laud greatness, forgetting that it takes a special skill to be completely useless. Moreso to be useless and yet still have people queuing up to avail of your services. Surely this must be acknowledged? If nothing but for the scary thought that, even in these credit crunch days, there are some companies who flourish not due to talent or ability, but despite an obvious lack of talent or ablity.
