oh boy I am knackered now!!
interview went ok I think & they were nice people so fingers & toes are crossed, will know by the end of the week.
Would really love to take the rest of the week off as far as job searching is concerned, and concentrate on the housework, but thats not ggod, need to keep getting the applications in until I get & accept an offer
Got another interview next week now, its part-time so probably won't pay enough, but then again, if it did, I'd love the extra time to myself, am so getting used to this lady of leisure life
Ex-employers are being rubbish as normal, staff rate ran out last week so they've confirmed the payment they want from 25th August...nothing about July & they've done it on the wrong rate - Good thing I have the paperwork to confirm that I'm on the old deal so should be on a lower rate - they have no record of it - funny that!! I'm still expecting an argument about it so may have to re-do budget again...which reminds me I need to phone tax office & get normal tax code againI do not make mistakes, I learn lessons.I work to live, not live to work.I love to live & live to love.Good enough is exactly that.0 -
