Today I applied for a new job. I don't think anything will come of it, but it feels good. Tomorrow I will be applying for another. :)


Today I was asked to come in for an interview for the first job. When I got in from work, I realised I have nothing appropriate to wear for one. Need to do some emergency shopping at the weekend, I think!

I just had a visit from Nielsen TV Ratings; they want to install a box to monitor our TV watching habits; and they pay us for the privilege; but I am dubious; having third party boxes installed in our home transmitting data about us really concerns me.

Do they pay extra when you watch pron?

Actually what's the pay they're offering? It's ridiculous how much weight they put on the Nielsen ratings. It's a ridiculously small percentage of the population and yet they base all of the ad revenue charges from that infinitesimally small amount of a sampling. I'd say go ahead and do it, unless you spend your life watching Real Housewives of Atlanta or some crap like that, you can only make TV better by rasing the standards.

The problem is that we don't have 'TV' per se; we stream all our entertainment through Netflix, Hulu etc; they can't track what you watch; just that you are streaming media, which means more ads on Hulu I'd guess. The initial payment is $100, then another $50 after 6 months, $100 after 12 months, $100 after 18 month and $150 after 24 months so a total of $500 over two years!

I went for an interview last year and put on my suit, it was a wee bit tight and I was thinking it was a bit of a strange style but didnt think much of it. Later was on phone to my mum and she asks what I wore, I said my suit and she goes 'your suits here'...

The suit I was wearing was about 20 years old.

Do you watch your sky stuff on the TV or puter? Could be cause for concern...
