Rug expert
Another day in Melbourne. Spent the majority of my day dealing with rugs. That's right, I'm working at a rug liquidation sale. It may not be glorious but at the moment it's a lot of hours, cash in hand and a job that only required a phonecall to secure.
I'm in the midst of trying to find barwork, but it is as it always is, hit and miss. Not many places seem to advertise online or in the paper so I'm forced to hit the streets in order to get my resume (known as the classical CV in oz) out. 
Unfortunately, being quite broke, I haven't been out much in the city and therefore do not know where the hell all the bars are located. But don't worry about me folks, I'll survive. I can usually sniff out a good pub within a few blocks. A great skill I've developped over the years.
For everyone out there who believes I'm living the glorious sunshine life right now...I wish. Melbourne is in winter or springing there as we speak. It's cool, with even a sunny high of only 23 degrees. I'm hoping it stays sunny cause if it gets colder here than it is back home I may have to move to warmer climates. I didn't come halfway around the world to be upstaged by Canadian weather.
Hopefully the next entry will find me with a barjob...cause the number of crude jokes involving carpets, rugs, shag, etc is getting to me. I need a cleaner environment.....
