Well, last week, I done Work Experience, and since I didn't organise it on time, I had to do it at Big W. It was pretty good I had to say, wasn't crap, but nothing fantastic. Working at the front service desks and check outs was the best, just bludging and talking to these funny chicks. Anyways, I hope I get a job out of this, as they said they are going to call half of us back next week, but those chicks said they will put in a good word for me, so I hope so.
Today was mad, concidering I got my Tax File Number ( TFN ) and opened up a Key Card Account, but most of all, I got my Learners Permit, I scored % 84 in the test, I was very happy.
Just thought I share what has happened to me in the past couple of weeks. Thankaz for your time.

I did my L's test and got 97% :P, 1 question wrong. But I couldn't get my L's cos i was born in Sri Lanka an dont have an aussie birth certificate or passport under 2 year old. So now i'm gettin my citizenship just to get my L's :(, but the citizenships a good thing, it's just the whole process.
I got my L's long before I ever got my citizenship. You may want to check it out better......

Try doing that at a computer store. The other day I had to try and explain why an Athlon XP 2800+ does not run at 2800MHz and a P4 2.8 does. Man it was a nightmare I swear I tried so many different stories. Eventually I got him with a story using stocking shelves. I basically said an Athlon can put more items on a shelf at a time then a P4, therefore it doesn't need to stock as fast because it can put more products on the shelf at a time than a P4. I had to do the hand actions and all and he finally understood. I don't think he understood what the word efficiency means...
And if anyone asks me the difference between DVD+R and DVD-R again I am going to scream!
Man I need a new job...

ROFL, it was probably one of my parents who where asking you the questions[:D]
Cody, i'm surprisesd you like the counter as well. I work at KFC and counter is shit. You have to be polite all the time, even if you are gettin an ear full from a retarded customer who can't understand why the potatoe gravy's are so small[:(!]. I prefer cooking.
Gunky Shit ? [:O] You know i used to think KFC was all good - but ive noticed a really sad decline in quality of the Zinger Works fillets over the past few months from the local KFC. 60% chicken 40% greasy veins and oil wrapped in " The colonels special blend of 11 herbs and spices! "
Very un-cool !
Lol, already answered that one about five times today!
Aside from getting technical, I just tell people that there is no particular advantage of using + or -, other than what their recorder supports and what their stand alone DVD player supports. At the moment DVD-R seems to be the more popular/compatible. DVD-R Developed by Pioneer, DVD+R by HP, Sony, Dell, Yamaha, heaps of ppls.
Theres a whole bunch of small technical differences with + being supposedly higher tech, but I don't really car that much about it. One interesting thing I was reading a while back was a type of Mouth Rainier support for + being developed for Windows Longhorn. Kind of like DVD-Ram but with better support in stand alone players. You'll need to buy a new burner to support that though.
Ah, I remember when I first tried to get my learners permit... I failed but still had to shell out ten bucks. [:(!]
