My new years resolution was to apply for a new job every day in January. Jobs I know I won't get, jobs I hope to get, jobs I'd be totally unsuitable doing and jobs no one wants. I thought I'd 'put myself out there' and see what doors open for me (or rather which doors get slammed in my face). Yesterdays application was for a caretakers job on a council estate in Islington (includes a flat!). I was depressed after reading the job spec because I discovered I was under qualified to be a cleaner but thought I'd apply anyway as I'm a dab hand with a J-Cloth. Never mind though, today's application is for an assistant toy buyer at Hamleys and the job ad stated

the ability to view the business through a child's childs eye is essential

I'm often accused of being childish and immature so I'm almost guaranteed to be fingering Barbie at Tokyo Toy Expo 2006.
