After a rather slow start, and a very enjoyable weekend with my friend (not my sister) Tamara, I’ve really started applying for jobs in earnest.  I’ve been doing this from the comfort of my home office:

The Airport Express I brought is a boon, as I can leech my uncle’s wireless from every room in this rather large house.  Incidentally, my new camera arrived, which is why I’m able to show you these lovely photographs.

I’ve applied for a wide variety of positions, including:

• English language trainer (already been rejected)
• Librarian
• Library technician (sort of)
• Library assistant
• Tour guide (and pub crawl guide)
• Customer service representative
• Web analyst

All of these jobs, other than the Customer service assistant, are located in Berlin itself.  The three library jobs are the sum total of library jobs for which I’m actually qualified.  There’s a couple more, but I would need either a degree in agriculture, be able to speak some eastern European languages or have years of experience leading a team of people.

The Customer service representative position is with an international games company, and is situated in either France or Ireland.  I was going to wait a little while before applying for it, but I’m starting to go stir crazy.  Can’t go out without money, can’t get money without a job.

Wish me luck!
