I swear I cannot keep up with the boss's weird moods swings

Yesterday she was on my back before I'd even sat down (this was my first day back at work after the cruise) and she was giving me a list of things I had to do and people I had to call. She had a go at me for talking about my holiday (!!!) and said that she didn't have time to look at my holiday pics

Then today she was all nice. She looked through my interview preparation notes, said that some of it was excellent and gave me points for other parts, she looked through all my holiday pics and told me how good they were and she's arranged for me to come it at lunchtime on Tuesday so I can recover from the travel and stuff

I'd be exhausted if I had mood swings like that!

Current Mood: confused

Is anyone else sick of hearing Speed of Sound by Coldplay. It came on the radio today and EVERYONE in my office started groaning. Now I've got the stupid song stuck in my head

Current Mood: annoyed
Current Music: Coldplay - Speed of Sound

I totally forgot about this until

flickums reminded me the other day

( Eurovision Pics )

Current Mood: amused

Well, I've got the weekend to learn all the preparation notes for my interview. Basically it's more like a test than an interview. We've got a set of 'core competences' such as leading a team, working with others, responding to change etc and we just have to give examples of having done each. So, I've got good examples for each one and I just have to make sure I've learned everything I want to say. I'm feeling fairly confident but it all depends on what the interviewers are like. They've been trained especially for these management assessment days so hopefully they'll be ok. It's amazing the difference having a nice interviewer can make. If they're really cold I tend to get nervous and forget what I want to say

Anyone got any good tips for memorising stuff?

Dude, I need to watch something with Beanie in like right now

*twitches*

I think I'm suffering from withdrawal

*runs downstairs to find a DVD to watch*

Current Mood: restless

I just realised why I recognised Captain Jack on Dr Who

John Barrowman! Dude, he used to present Live and Kicking when I was a kid and I had a massive crush on him

HEY! How come he looks exactly the same and I don't?
