Today was one of the longest days of my life, waiting for a phone interview with ACCA at 9.30pm. I felt like I used to as kid on Christmas Eve, waiting for it to be dark so that we could begin to open our presents. This is what my desk looked like 5 minutes before the phone rang. It didn't matter how many notes I had, there was nothing that could have prepared me for an opening question like: "Ok Annika, I need 500 dead trees by Monday, what are you going to do about it?". Soon to be followed with: "Great, so now that the trees have arrived, we've realised that they've come with leaves still on. We need them without leaves. What kind of problems could we incur by having to remove the leaves ourselves?". Somehow, especially considering my answer of 'is this a joke question?', I don't think I'm going to be relocating to Melbourne anytime soon...
