Seem's a very relevant time to bring back this thread this week...
Monday Yoink!
Was successfully accepted into and offered a position on the September 2020 trainee scheme for journalistic post graduates at the BBC in media city, a positions i've been working towards for 3 years now and was extremely excited to start....
Wednesday Bah!
Only for funding to be pulled for the position days later due to concerns over job security post Covid, and there's no guarantee i'll even be able to simply take up the job next September instead, meaning i'll likely have to reapply for the job and go through the long application process ALL OVER AGAIN...
Thursday Yoinks!
Was offered a similar position at the MEN after a few months waiting on feedback from my interview back in February...
Todays Bah!
....Aaaaand that position has been pulled too.
Fuck it, who needs a career eh? I'm having a drink.
