I spent the entire day working on my video application. It's been submitted, yay! However when I applied on Indeed it still demanded a resume attachment... so I attached that. Maybe I should have said in brackets that indeed wouldn't let me submit unless I attached one. Hopefully the employer doesn't think I can't follow directions :(
I also applied to a film job as well. I've actually met the president of the company before, but I don't know if she'll remember me... it's been two years since I last saw her. I hope they will consider me. :)
I've made sure to keep my portfolio updated too. Things are coming along and I've realized I really do love video production and editing!! It would be great if I can land a job that uses it most of the time. :D
I was thinking about the whole 8 more weeks until my contract is done.. and a part of me is saying I can definitely hold it out for that long. I just need to find ways of keeping myself sane and composed. I mean, as long as I'm doing things I enjoy in the meantime, I should be fine. But then again it's 7.5 hours a day at work... doing stuff I don't enjoy. :(
I'm really thinking about whether I should send that e-mail to my employment agency... Would they help me? Or would they report it to my assignment? Sigh, I don't know. I also don't want to quit without a backup, in the past it was easy because I was working a part-time job at the same time, so I could make that decision. However, now I only have one job... so I can't easily make that decision anymore. Also, I don't know how my family would react. Everyday I tell them work is 'okay' and I've given subtle hints that it's not very likeable. 8 weeks is a long time to stay at a workplace doing what you dislike...
Especially invoices, gosh I hate those so much with a passion. When I had the interview, they asked me straight up how I processed invoices at my previous job. Red flag right there. Then when they didn't give me the weekend to think it over, but three hours? That's another red flag. Also, when they said I wouldn't be with people that often... that was another red flag for me personally, because I wanted to work with others. Also, I had no idea my boss would be working from home. That's something I wasn't prepared for on my very first day and it went chaotic. Definitely need to make sure it doesn't happen again at my next workplace/job.
