:nana: I got a call from an agency yesterday. They rent out work force to different companies, and they had read my CV online and wanted me to come in for an interview. I went there this morning, and I had a feeling I had a shoe in (pardon the pun) when the man interviewing me asked me what shoe size I have - special shoes are required for the job - and I figured that he'd only ask me that if he was actually considering me for the job.

And, yes, one hour after I had left his office, he called and asked me to come back and sign the contract and meet my new coworkers!

For atleast 4 weeks (might be more if the company has more need for us) I and 4 others will be unpacking stuff and placing them on the shelves in a warehouse between 6am and 10am, 5-6 days a week, with TWICE as much pay on Sundays - I'll be working 3 sundays for about 187:- SEK/hour!!! ($1=8,50 SEK, you do the math!) I'll be making a fortune!!! :nana:

Wouldn't you just know the currency of Sweden would be something close to sex?

:D

Congratulations Svenskaflicka. I'm happy for you.

Never thought if it that way! :D Do you know that we also have the same word for sex as for the number 6?
 
Another good thing about this job is that it takes the edge off the coming exams. Before, I was all nervous about the fact that if I don't pass either the Math exam or the Operative System exam; then I won't get any school fundings for September. Now, I'll get a shit load of money all the same!:D

I still have to work hard and pass the darned tests, ofcourse, but the pressure's off. Now I can concentrate on the subjects alone. :cathappy:

Picture the number six in your mind...

Sort of a ball and a penis...

And then there's the whole 69 thing.

You Swedes, just obsessed about sex... :D

That reminds of this joke:

A man goes to the shrink and says that people are complaining that he (the man, not the shrink) is obsessed with sex. The shrink decides to try out some free association tests on the man, and holds up a sign of a circle.
"That's a woman's breast!" says the man.
The shrink shows him a sign of a rectangle.
"That's a man's penis!" says the man.
The shrink shows him a triangle.
"That's a woman's pussy, but you're holding the picture upside down!" says the man.
The shrink shows him a sign of two wavy lines.
"That's a man and a woman having sex!" says the man.
The shrink sighs, puts the signs away, and tells the man that yes, the man IS obsessed with sex.
"Hey!" says the man. "I am obsessed with sex? YOU are the one showing me all these dirty pictures!!!"
