Bloody Typical!
Just when I was getting the hang of putting things up, I get hammered by a virus, the internal illogic of Microsoft, or my own incompetence.
Bear with me if there aren't any updates for a while, but it looks as if I've got to reformat or reconfigure my computer workings.
And I'll shoot the bugger who once stated that computers are a labour-saving device.
Meantimes, here are my thoughts from yesterday. And I promise I won't moan about Charlton losing again........
Ethnic Bias?
I'm job hunting, a dispiriting task at the best of times. And these aren't.
The Japanese International Cooperation Agency has an ad in today's (now 2 days ago ~ read the above) paper for a Program Officer. Ok, I don't have "at least 3 years in office management at international level .....experiences with technical cooperation or donor agency."
As for "capability of Japanese language is necessary (at least level 2)" ~ no way José.
But the clincher, which really smacks of ethnic bias, is that "Only short candidates will be contacted."
Now I don't think I'm tall; Indonesians are short.
So, godammit, at 6'5" I'm a victim of heightism.
