News Editor
First ever interview with a tie and collared shirt and without my monoburn. Walked to the end of Bourke Road but in the Mascot direction. Luckily had extra time to back track and walked over to Alexandria with at least five minutes to spare. Fiddled around with sandwich which was giving off a devon odour. Managed to cool down and stop sweating while waiting for the interview.
Unresponsive to when Chris Deal (Editor of Fast Fours VIP) came and brought me in. Winced when Adam McWhinney (Online Services) crushed my hand. Did not sit still and kept trying to make sure my tie wasn't touching the seat, apparently I'd knotted it with too much tail, it went and covered most of my crotch. I could not remember a thing about the job description and tried in vain to bluff my way through. The interview went all the way too informal of sorts when my knowledge (or lack thereof) had all three of us looking out the window listening to McWhinney show off his knack for make and models of cars. An extremely dishevelled man walked by wherein Deal (who once played in a band with Peabody) gave a description fitting for the police.
No matter how many times McWhinney would try and ask a question I invariably ended up talking about something totally off-topic and most of it wasn't even related to the position. I know I went off on some angle when the question of what I could say to make me most appealing came up. I asked them if there was a chance to move on from the position and how the talk moved to their gardening magazine I don't want to know.
Didn't even get a rejection notice. Didn't even hand back the day pass I was given earlier either.

Wearing: First time with a tie. When put on in the toilet at the station, was okay. Closer to the venue, it somehow extended way past the crotch line. First time for shoes. Not sneakers or boots, shoes. With V
