Yes, it’s true! I’ve gone back to the daily grind, but don’t worry, only temporary! I felt it was time to remind myself how lucky I am, and to fill that hole in my CV somewhat. So I applied for some temp jobs and quickly got myself hired!
I’ve been working in a hotel, and the work has been great, as are the people. I’ve been fasttracked through all the different jobs, so the first week I have been a chambermaid, a breakfast lady, a receptionist, a bartender… You name it, I’ve done it, it was truly a fantastic way to get to know how the business works. it was hard work, and long shifts but getting to know the insides was absolutely worth it! I’ve still got about a month to go, mainly to support the management while they go on their respective vacations.
Sales have started here two weeks ago, and I went shopping with one of my new colleagues. I saw a pair of shoes that is exactly like a pair I have, but red instead of light blue. They are perfect, but I resisted. I’ve been regretting it since, so tomorrow, first thing I’m going back to the store to see if they still got them. (I love the brand, girls check it out: http://www.harlotshoes.com )
I’ve been living in a wonderful little apartment these last few weeks, in a beautiful city: Bruges. Not doing any work, but still planning that tour!
