Break ins, new jobs & uni interviews

It’s been quite a busy week, also quite an eventful one, some good and some bad.

A few days ago I woke up to find my, Rob’s and Allie’s cars had been broken into!! They were parked out the front of our house on the road. At first I couldn’t work out was wrong, I just thought Rob had been out to his car earlier in the morning and had left it unlocked by mistake. But no. Some little shits had broken into it and stolen all his CDs. They had done the same to my car. My sister’s car was the worse off, they’d take all her CDs aswell as ripped the whole stereo unit out and taken the stereo. What’s worse is that they’d pulled all her air conditioning out too and cut the wires to her headlights and indicator lights.
Rob went to the police station and made a statement, but basically they didn’t care and couldn’t do anything. The little shits had used gloves as well, so we know they had organised it, it wasn’t random. It also means we couldn’t finger print them to connect them to other break ins. We have decided not to claim insurance on anything, it’s not worth losing the no claims bonus. But now I only have three CDs. :sad:

In better news, I have a second job! At Harvey Norman. I’m going to be a cashier. I’m absolutely thrilled because they want me to work fulltime over the Christmas month while my current work place is closed. Because the accounting firm I work for is a corporate place they close for a month over Christmas. So I was starting to freak out that I’d have no money for a month!! Well six weeks if you count that I’d have to work two weeks before I’d get my next pay. That would not be good at all.
So I start tonight, 5.30-9pm, my other day will be Sunday 9am-5.30pm. I still have my accounting job three days a week up until Christmas. So for the next few weeks I’ll be working five days a week at two different jobs which is not bad at all. Then when the accounting firm closes for Christmas I’ll do more hours at Harvey Norman.
Something that pisses me off? I’m working two jobs to give me money to work and the little bastards who broke into my car are most likely on the benefit collecting my money I work for through my taxes. It’s crap! :mad:

Another great news topic is that Rob is off to his interview at Uni this morning. After this interview he’ll know if he’s allowed to do the teaching course, Bachelor of Education. He was quite nervous when he left. I’m waiting for his text to tell me how it went!!

The plans for today; bake some banana choc chip muffins with some bananas that are starting to turn brown (best time to cook them): I’ll take a photo when they’re done!. Do some Christmas shopping with my sisters, wash my sheets and get ready for my new job tonight!!
