To the Desert

Since I have yet to hear back from the fish market, and am rather unsure of my potential as a waitress (I am not the most graceful of ladies), I have decided to broaden my job search. I have booked a train ticket to Kalgoorlie, where the dresses are skimpy and the goldmines are deep. I am hoping that by moving locations that I might be able to snag some manual field work or at least something a little rustic. I am so tired of the city right now.

My buddy Jill, who only arrived last week, has a job at a resort selling ice cream in Broome for $20/hr, full time. This may be due to the fact that Broome is 2200km north of Perth and remote as hell. I am still a little jealous. Melissa gave me a bit of a pep talk today about jobs as I was getting rather down. She was supposed to head out to the field today but I just found out that she missed the flight, so her, Jill and I are going out for supper. Drinks all around!
