Sally can you contact them and see if you can split the payment over a couple of months?
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

Why do you want the job
Why do you want to work for them
What are your positives and what you can offer to them
What are your negatives and how do you go about working to change those
Plus a bit about your working history.
Examples of when you have done the things/ displayed the skills they ask for in the job/ person spec.

Definitely tell them you need to split it down into smaller payments, they rarely argue.Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
