aisling of tea drank Jungle Ju Ju by DAVIDsTEA

Using a tall glass of this cold as a pick-me up and an energy-giver and boy is it working! I found out today that I did not get the job I had been hoping for (praying for, begging for), and I’m a little down and dreading having to send out more resumes, as the last 25 only brought back that one potential lead. Anyone know of any jobs in Toronto? ;).

Anyway, this tea is giving me the boost I need to get more done, so here I go…wish me luck!

Awh, I feel your pain. The persistence really sucks but will pay off. Good luck! If I happen to hear of anything (my office just finished hiring and maybe it will fall through?), I’ll keep you in mind.

Thanks and thanks! It’s just a really bad time to be looking for a job, I guess.

I think the job market is tough everywhere, when we downsized for Summer Camp we ended up turning away 3 staff who work the School year and had to turn away all applicants for Summer.

Stiff upper lip, something will turn up.

and this tea is a great pick me up! :)

Yeah, if my residency had come through just a few weeks earlier, I might have had more luck slipping in to replace college students going home for the summer or graduating. Ah well. Something will come up, in this I have faith!

My tastes in tea have changed, so I should update this as well. I find myself leaning more towards rooibos and herbals, if only for their great ability to chill in my travel mug for hours and not get weird on me. When I have time to properly brew a cuppa, I lean towards white teas (which I only steep for 30 seconds) and black teas (which only get 2-3 minutes from me). I cannot stand green teas, they’re too fiddly for my tastes. Oolongs are great, but a bit fiddly as well. However, I love watching oolongs open up in my looseleaf brewer. I’m slowly discovering mates and falling for them…there are many I look forward to trying!

So…yeah. That’s me and my tea!
