I have my books, Padma has her cookbooks. Trouble is there are only so many cookbooks she can read before she gets bored, and so she has applied for a casual position at the local Business College. In fact, she's been there before, literally! — see below:
Of course, these days even the lowest position has a most detailed Job Description. This one could've just read, "Do whatever needs doing, and don't forget to switch on the kettle in time for morning tea", but that wouldn't have sounded important enough. Here it is, chapter and verse:
Anyway, Padma sent off her application:

Dear Larissa, I read of this position at your Batemans Bay College on facebook and wish to apply. Having read the Position Description on your website, I am positive I meet all your requirements. For your information, I completed a business course at your College in 2007 - see attached newspaper cuttings. Kindly read through my online c.v. at nelligennet.com/cvpadma.html, and if you believe as much as I do that I could make a valuable contribution to your office, please contact me via email or phone. I am ready to come to your office at any time convenient to you. I am also ready to start work at any time, as I have my own transport and can work any hours required. Yours sincerely Padma Goerman

Something may come of it or nothing may come of it. If something comes of it, it will give me lots of quiet time to read my books; if nothing comes of it, Padma can always read her cookbooks again.
