got chatting to the boss about my permenancy the other day: acted like he didn't know and told to me ask my line manager.
tool.
i told him that kevin had already asked me: three weeks ago, and that i'd like to know when it was all going to be done.
it's funny how a swift kick up the bum can get things moving.
unless he gets slothful on me again, i should get my permanent roster either next week or the week after.

good:

i know when i'm going to work therefore i can make social arrangements. *tick* yay! SUPERBOWL!!!! (

holiday and sick pay

leave loading

overtime if i have to work any extra hours

bad:

pay is less, and one week out of every fortnight i HAVE to have two days off (policy). this may mean i get 16-20 hours one week, and less than ten the next. financially, this is terrible. but i'm going to be forced to deal with it

pay is less and one week out of everyfortnight i lose two nights work

it's pretty much that i won't have the same money really. there is a particular amount of money i need to earn in order to help us function properly (without cunterlink butting in) and it's just not going to happen with these hours.

i'll need to either get a full time day job, or a second part time job in order to fulfill the financial whole caused by this new situation.

i've already started looking for new work.
in order to get the money i need, i need to work 20-30hours per week at about $20 per hour.
now, if anyone can find me a part-time (permanent) position that pays this well, in an area i either know or can learn swiftly, or is mostly unskilled (because i have a background in the arts) i may have favours for you (sexual or otherwise*).

i probably should think about going to bed now.
all the fun i've had on
