So, oh my god.
First of all, sorry for not blogging. Second of all, sorry for assuming that people care enough about me to notice that I'm not blogging.
Still.
There's a few things:
1) New job.
That's right. After 2 years, 2 months, 1 day and what felt like about 11 hours, I was done. No more Toni&Guy. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't absolutely devastated to leave my beloved co-workers and (more importantly) staff discount behind...but not having to wash old people's hair anymore?
I was fucking pumped. One booze-fueled leaving party and lazy-ass Sunday later, I was on my way to my new job, as a campaigns development assistant at Buyinvite Australia. The job title makes no sense, but I can break it down by saying that Buyinvite is an online shopping club, and my role was to upload all sale info - photo, product details, pricing, inventory etc. It was exactly as much fun as it sounds like: none.
Luckily, about 2 months into that job, Buyinvite merged with another online shopping club (which you may have heard of) called Ozsale. Combined, we're the number 1 retail company in the country...I think. Probably? Look, I don't really give a shit if the stuff I say on my blog is 100% accurate or not. Ozsale does well for itself. End of story. After merging with Ozsale, I my job title was altered to 'Merchandising Assistant', and I was specifically assigned to the children's category.
HELLO, IRONY.
On the minus side, you probably couldn't find someone who relates less to people under the age of 16 than me. On the plus side though - I GET TO PLAY WITH TOYS ALL DAY!!
Also on the plus side, I guess the childrenswear buyer from Ozsale liked the look of me, coz after a few weeks of MA-ing for Buyinvite, I was invited to interview for the Assistant Buyer role at Ozsale.
And I got it.
2) New house.
Finally - FINALLY - I got off the north shore. No longer work there, no longer live there. As an AB for Ozsale I'm based in the head office at Brookevale. And since Alex and Richie became totally loved up and have moved in together, I'm now living with Boyfriend at a kick-ass apartment in Coogee. Which kind of leads me to my next point...
3) Boyfriend = Fiance.
Did I not mention this earlier?
I'm getting married.
More coming soon (I actually promise I'm back this time)
