I feel happy and dirty at the same time.
As some of you may know, i applied for a job at the police corps. But Amsterdam wasnt hiring, so i picked the nearest corps (district) and applied for a job there.
This would mean that my new work would be an hours drive away from home (at least). Now i know that to some of you (mostly US folk i reckon) that might not seem like a big deal, but here its very unusual to travel that long, especially when you already live in the city.
But i really wnatedto job, so i was more than willing to make the journey day in day out.
But i just so happen to know a DA (he used to be head-DA of the country) that said he could arrange for me to work in amsterdam. And he managed to do it!
He called the chief of police in amsterdam and asked him if i could work there, wether tehy were hiring or not. And the guy actually said yes. So i just managed to cut an hour of travelling every day for at least 3 years from my (future)life and gave myself a whole lot more interesting workplace.
My interview is monday, and now im even more psyched because i want the job soooo bad.
Im happy about it, but im not very proud of what ive done.
