corrupt recruitment is corrupt

I'm amazed at how long it took me to get pissed. So last week, I was invited for an interview. I went there, all prepared, and everything went well. In fact, it went great. Then I was phoned for a call back. Apparently I was one in 4 out of 400 people who got the opportunity.

So on Friday I went back, and only saw the other candidate. Skankishly dressed of course. Because the two bosses are white, Australian men in their mid 30's. Thats beside the point LOL fyi - She got the job! *facepalm

Anyhoo, to my demise, I didnt get the job. Eventhough the interview went great. And a lot of the Staff even said so. This got me thinking. They obviously already knew who they wanted. Because the person had to start today. And I couldnt help but think I was being strung along just so that they could "follow" procedure.

Which brings me to my next point. "DIS MOS LEKKER OM GOEIE MENSE VIR 'n GAT TE VAT!!" (Translation: "Its fun taking good people for a ride" - Said sarcastically of course.)

Because if you think about it, I roughly spent R200 for petrol, wasted two days of my life that I easily could've used to do something else. And more importantly, they created false hope! Yeah yeah, call me bitter. I just think its wrong to string desperate people along, just so you can benefit and scheme. Why bother calling us back, when after the first interview, you already made up your mind? And the icing on the cake was, when I asked the lady, why I was unsuccesful, she could not answer me and I'm in fact still waiting for a reply.

Yes I know life's a bitch. Yes I know this is how the job hunting goes. But I think its wrong. And that these people should go fuck themselves :) 

Time is money, and if you waste my time I will get pissed!

truth it is


Peplum me this, Peplum me that


I cant fret enough about how much I love this trend. Some might say I'm a bit late, but I don’t care. I've never really been one for trends. I love wearing what I'm comfortable in and what makes me feel good :)

The Peplum is the perfect thing for us plus sized girls. And girls with curves. It accentuates the hips (which I don’t have) haha and camouflages the waist. Cant wait to get my hands on a dress!!

REAL women have CURVES


As much as I love the Angels, I love Dove too. And their campaign. Bring back the boootey!!!

Its that time of year again 25-08-2012


I simply cant wait for the Oliver Fortuin Foundation's Annual Ball! :D

A time to give thanks, dress up and support a great cause. An evening of glitz, glamour, awesome food, superb company and live entertainment. 250 bucks a pop.

As you all know by now, we have a theme every year. And we thought it would be a good idea to incorporate the Olympics in our theme this year. So we're going with GREEK :) Fitting don’t you think? That is after all where it all started.

Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. Greek Goddesses. Men dressed suave. Not to mention the fantastic décor. A blast I tell you. So I went along and got some pics of dresses, hairstyles etc. Enjoy!!!











GOREJOUS

So I found this little gem of a designer on twitter. Small world actually, I used to know her brother. Anyhoo...

Tracy Gore is a talented designer residing in the beautiful Mother City (Cape Town). She has a very unique style and make use of fabulous radiant colours. Caters for all shapes and sizes, and simply has a real passion for what she does. That’s the kind of person I want to design a dress of mine :) Her designs are feminine and oh so sexy! She is most certainly a force to be reckoned with.

But enough of my rambling. I'll let the pictures do the talking

I find it quite sad that certain people still go around saying DUBstep or even Drum and Base is KAK a.k.a crap. I mean really! How narrow-minded do you have to be when making a statement like that. And ironically its people with normally good taste in music and people who are educated and well informed. Hence me saying its sad.
 
Er who died and made them Simon Cowell? Right? Just because something is weird to you, or just because you haven’t listened to it or found a liking to it, doesn’t mean its crap music.

I think DUBstep and DNB is unique. To be able to make such grimy music, that make your ears bleed LOL is brilliant. And like I said, it's that amazing beat! Just feeling the music thumping through your whole entire body and without any qualms, moving to the rhythm. AWESOME I tell you. Underground grime is the best. 
Im too pissed to really explain the origins of Dubstep. So you can do yourself and me a favour and go read about it here -> ORIGINS OF DUBSTEP

I think its awful when people start discriminating and discouraging others from doing or listening to what they feel they want to. I don’t shit on your ideals, likes and believes, so why shit on mine?

Its this kind of behavior that makes me doubt my fellow homosapian.


Keep stepping!! :)
