Hello All
Just a quick posting for me at the moment (I will come back on and read everyone's DFW things and post properly, but
I HAVE A JOB!!!!!!!!!!
As you can tell, I am really excited. I went for the interview this morning (spent a bit of money, but that is another story), waited all day (it dragged) and got the call this evening. I start on Monday and I am having a working interview. Basically it is a chance for them to make sure that they have picked the right candidate.
Off to celebrate with Hubby and Mum.
Catch up with you all later
