Zero

Today was the day where I had a specific job-seeking thing to do. Today was the day I had an appointment with Right Management consultants. Today was the day I woke up feeling shit with the onset of a cold. I really didn't want to cancel and hoped by being out and about I'd feel better. I'm not sure where I've caught a cold from because I haven't had enough interaction for a week. I don't think handing a tenner to the dry cleaner yesterday would result in an exchange of germs.

I went to Leeds, not feeling great but able to function. The meeting was a quite a disappointment. I emailed them my CV last week and hoped that I'd get constructive feedback but the woman I saw hadn't even looked at it and it will be dealt with now that I'm "on the programme" and when I go on a two-day course in two weeks' time. It was a general introduction to the effects of redundancy and job seeking but I think I've been quite prepared for it for months. They seem to have lots of resources available via their website so I'll make as much use of that as possible. I came straight home and daydreamed away the afternoon with a bag of M&Ms.


In an effort to expel my cold I played football in the freezing cold for an hour. I hope it works. I didn't score but I enjoy the runaround and didn't aggravate my troublesome groin.
