I have spent my day calling people to confirm their address with us. I tell them that I'm with Foreign Afairs and they don't know who we are. My boss refuses to believe that, even though the name was changed 15 years ago, most people still think we're External Affairs. Yeah, minor difference, I know, but to the public, it's the difference between the government and a telemarketer.
On the plus side, I've been able to practice my french. Chaque Quebecqois que j'ai parlé avec ont seulement communiqué en français, et ils ont parlé très, très rapidement. C'était bonne pratique pour l'essai français du gouvernement, ainsi je ne devrais pas etre désolé. So even though the job sucks, I will keep at it, so that I will be able to pass my damned French Test and get a decent job with the government, or better yet, with a museum.
Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy working as a temp, but really, something stable would be more than nice ...
On the other side of the coin, life is going well. My creative juices are flowing and I seem to have gotten a handle on the Transformers Filet crochet. The pattern seems to be working out well, and I'll try a test run later this week (possibly this evening). And I finally have my cell phone how I like it. Betty Boop is the screen image, and the Munster's Theme is the ringtone. Two different eras, but all happy kitch. And I admit, I also downloaded The Transformers Theme ... I couldn't resist.
And that's really about it. Well except for a quiz that I nabbed from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
julie_ann. ... Hmmm ... I like that. I've always had a soft spot for Mystique. I do love the bad girls.
