30 days in 30 seconds
Since my last post I have:
- Lain in bed ill for a few days
- Gone deaf in my right ear from said illness, resulting in a very grumpy Oliver for a week
- Had my ear ‘fixed’
- Applied for a promotion despite only being promoted five months ago
- Paid real money for a book on interview techniques, a move which my younger self would have sneered at
- Made a fool of myself at an interview (though I think the panel got a nice chuckle out of my performance)
That last one was this morning, actually. Apparently I’ll know in two days. Buddies of mine also applying said it was their worst interview ever too, so I guess it’s not just me. Still, the mental fantasies about getting promoted again were fun while they lasted.

AWVC uses the Markdown formatting system, a very simple way to format your comments. Whitespace is converted directly. Enclose a phrase with asterisks to italicise, and two asterisks (**) to embolden. A good introduction to the Markdown format is available here.
Cleverly, though, the preview is basically useless (it will just show what you've typed). If you want a real preview, enter your text into the Markdown Dingus, then re-enter it here.
