Nice try, McCarthy

Yes, it's that time again. I am looking for another job. Seek and CareerOne are getting a lot of looks at the moment, as is the UAC website because if I go back to uni no one can judge me for not having a job, right? Students are the wave of the future, right? 

Anyway, I was looking on Seek just now at the Arts, Media and Entertainment jobs under Graduates. In all of Sydney there are 42 jobs in this category, and I'm pretty sure there are more arts graduates than that running around out there. I can't kneecap them all - I'm just one woman - so the competition is obviously going to be pretty stiff for the decent jobs, even with my several weeks experience sitting at a desk trying to look as if I have a clue as to what I'm doing.

Luckily, I found this ad;


That's me! I'm a socialist! I read Noam Chomsky all the time, I'm on the e-newsletter list for Australian Marriage Equality and I even just dyed my hair a little bit red, and... wait. Oh. Not that kind of socialist. Um. I might have to ask my husband before I can commit to this sort of work. Um. Good luck with that, though.
