    No, got to wait until they have a board meeting, at the end of the month to findout if I have a start date or in fact a job,
    a similar situation to rog2, but mine on a lesser scale.:confused:

    I should have made this a bit clearer before, but I got a bit giddy:o

    As I understand it,
    The director in charge of the workplace, wants a new stores man , to assist the current storesman, (who is nearing retirement and is starting to... erm forget things shall we say) and take over in time .
    Thing for me and them is to get someone in early enough that the knowledge he has, can be passed on, and brought into the computer age:o

    But this director needs to get it through to the others, :confused:

    It dosen't go down too well if that member of your family calls the person who is going to give you a job, various names most of which will blow the swear filter here away:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
