Okay I've got a job for now, which is nice. I'm working for Foxtel in account management, so no outside calls, data entry, it's not too bad really. The cash is okay, and the work isn't really that difficult, actually it's pretty easy, and there's a table tennis table, and hopefully it will be extended to 8 weeks and can help with the bulking up of my CV.
Negs- I really am a misanthrope, and working in this place just convinces me of this fact. People treat temps like they are the plague, and working in this position has convinced me that most people are very, very stupid because they choose not to think.
Real neg...I need something I can really enjoy, I cling to stupid little pathetic addictions/obsessions because they entertain me, not because they have any real value, and I know it. I'm lacking any real human contact outside my close circle of friends, and that's not a good thing. One close group of friends are basically misanthropes and hermits, so people who drift and withdraw from life, the other are all settling down, all but two of the couples (and that's basically that group, 80%+ of them are long term couples, all but two are engaged/married/having kids) . This job means I've had to cut back on my already painfully thin social life, and my ability to meet other people...
I just typed meat instead of meet, I wonder what's going through my head, damn this Freudian keyboard...

How is your new job going,is it permanant or part time..if its part time the good thing about it is that would have a limited time you have to interact with people..just nod & smile and im sure they will be happy
I'm worried about the richness of my life too, because my job takes up most of my time, then I do a little freelance editing on the side. And because I'm living at home at the moment to save money, I'm really far away from my friends.
How do we change this?
