Employment! I’m a little teapot short and stout…

Wednesday 4th June, 2008 - £8,920.19 in debt…

 

Another day, another temping agency assessment. More forms than I could shake a stick at (five in total – I draw the stick-shaking line at four), and another typing test.

 

But then, the minute I got home, I had a call from another agency, offering me a short-term full-time job. It’s only for the next couple of weeks, but it will pay this month’s rent and fill in the time while I look for something part-time.

 

Unfortunately, because it pays a week in arrears, I still haven’t got any money coming in until June 20th and I’m running low on cash. Time to give myself a budget and stick to it…
