Stoked that I just survived an job interview for an english teaching position in a swedish high school. I had 4 people interviewing me (which I didn’t know beforehand) and the whole thing was in swedish!

They definitely liked me but the thing that would work against me is that we’re moving back to oz soon, so I could only work until the end of october.
If I got it, it would be sick! Would be so interested to see for myself how the swedish school system works and the job is 3 days a week. Would also be some great experience teaching ESL before I go back to Australia.

Even if I don’t get it, I’m just really happy that I had the life experience of that interview. Very surreal!

Cheers mate!  The whole reason that was happening was I wasn’t going to be finished my apprenticeship until mid January. And I would have had heaps more dosh.
Straight to whis and start working, If I get my shit together I’m going to take some time off late season and go shred mammoth with some buddies. Shouldn’t be too expensive, already got a pass and accom so just gotta pay for travel, food and booze thumbsup

In other stoke news, I quit my job yesterday, on a surprisingly good note aswell, my boss was obviously pissed off about the whole situation and certain things I have done, but he came in and said “im not here to try change your mind”, we spoke for around 20 minutes, fairly heated at times, but at the end we were both calm, he said “dont take this as we wouldn’t give you a job again, I feel you know a fair bit of what we do,  if you’re in town look is up “, he then smiled, thanked me for my service with the company, said good luck,  we shook hands and I pissed off
off.
I’ve now packed everything back in Coffs up, about 3 big boxes of anyone have at it shit, 1 small box to be stored and the rest in my backpack and board bag to take to Canada.
And now I’m on the road back to jindy, see you fuckers tomorrow night shaka
