First one to clear 15k gets a paper hat

Hi Chiconoa, well done on finding MSE. I agree with Doodles full and frank SOA and people will help in a constructive way. It is very daunting but will help you see the wood from the trees

SH - I think cars are evil money pits. I also think garages can take the p!ss something terrible. They never make clear whats essential and whats delayable. I also have no mechanical understanding which always makes me easy to bamboozle with jargon. Any more job interviews lined up? Fingers crossed the perfect job is just round the corner.

TMD hope the little ones continue to recover and you get to have a less stressful weekend.

HI Shelley no more interviews currently - need to apply for some more jobs and go and see the agencies again...

Hope you find a good one. Still can't believe the other place finished you because of honesty - gits :mad:

Hi and Welcome

Have you tried selling on Ebay to make extra money? I also save up loose change and will count it up every few months and if I can make up the bags you get from the bank I cash them up and pay them off a debt.

Definitely start a new thread and you will probably get lots of replies with good advice from people who have used this site for ages, I do love reading the advice given to others though as it gives me motivation and encouragement.

Good luck

I am so glad that I cut my card up earlier as I needed to buy some stuff (food, toilet rolls, drinks etc) and would have used my card if I'd had it with me.

What's worse is that they are now trying to deny it - and the agency wants to know if I would go back!? Not sure if that is a realistic possibility from either side or not as it was quite tramatic being there! I think she must have reconsidered when she saw the wonderful quality of my work :rolleyes: I would say no but my car is off the road now, and my CC bill just arrived and it was much higher than normal...... Oh well next week is another week!

What an awful position to be in. I know you want a job but one you found traumatic and were treated badly isn't at all appealing. Here's hoping they phone first thing Monday with a placement elsewhere

Thanks Shelley - OH doesn't want me to go back either - I am just a bit scared long term if I don't get another job soon!

Sorry guys - didn't win - not even a fiver. My OH said that one person won the £12m - what a lucky s*d whoever they are.

Oh well, back to the real world.

clearmydebts

Oh well, onwards and upwards TooMuch!

Tirlittan - meant to reply yesterday. We are moving as the flat we are renting has been sold. I don't mind moving as the flat we are renting is in the basement and the new one is much brighter so at least we will know when it is a nice day outside!
