As i have probably mentioned, I have to take 2 weeks out of school on work experience this year - I have now found some faith in the education system! Who ever though of that actually did have brains and i cant wait!
Getting to the point, i organised my placement myself (I didnt want to end up working in ASDA) and I got onto this estate here which looks really good and also has a great reputation! So, i recieved the confimation letter to say it was insured etc etc and all that boring paper worky stuff that ( to me) seems pretty crap (and a bit OTT but i suppose it has to be done) was complete and all was sorted - however it also said i had to go for an interview - H&S i think and also just to see that i am not some sort of loony!
Then the problem came.... 1st of all i had to ring - i hate calling people as i either start talking and then come off the phone half an hour later after going off on some tangent or i call and make a right idiot of myself. So i rang, and aranged the interview. Not too bad!
Problem 2 - what to wear? I know this sounds really women like but its a farm, i dont want to go suited up but then again i dont want to go in my ripped jeans and a manky rugby shirt! So, asking people (women) what to wear came back with ''go smart'' so i have had a rumage thorugh my draws and found my decent shirt and a tie - i think i look a complete idiot though and then someone even suggested wearing cords!! CORDS MAN!!! I am 15 not 50 (sorry if you are into cordoroys but there not really my thing).
I am stuck now, dont know what to wear! All i need to do is find where the office is on the thousands of acres of estate! :(
On a brighter note - 16th of June for two weeks i am on the farm working (8.30 - 16.30) which i cant wait for - hopefully may be able to work there during harvest and haymaking - the job description looks great!!!!!
Goodbye for now and I will let you know how i get on (Isabel, caroline - any tips???)
