    My pad for today is £1 to Barclaycard.

    Fingers crossed for the job Sashybo - were the tests difficult? I worked for Capital One about 5 years ago and they had really scary maths tests, plus two interviews to get through.:o


    Thanks frasersmum, it was really just group tasks like prioritising tasks and deciding who to leave on a desert island out of a certain amount of people i.e. doctor, priest etc. The scariest part was probably standing up in front of the group (about 20 people) and selling a random product.

    Well done to gilly for paying off Provi. :j:T

  • Oh I have done that one before too Sashybo, when I went for an interview at D&G. I hate those types of tasks because you never can tell what the people are looking for - are they hoping you will be empathetic or ruthless! I suppose it all depends on the type of company :D

    Did you get saved or fed to the sharks?

    Hi everyone.

    Sorry for the rant yesterday, I had had a bad day if you couldn't tell! :rotfl: I've had a little look and there's not alot around at the minute, well nothing that grabs me anyway - a couple of jobs going in some really rough schools but thats not for me! Nice and average is what I like!
    After a lot of thinking and having calmed down a bit, I've decided I'm going to go back on Monday and just get on with it - I know that I always do my best for my classes and that will shine through. I'm going to have the bare minimum of contact with the person causing the problems (I know it's my boss - I'll work around it!) and just work on keeping my standards high even if nobody elses are.

    No pad for me yet - I used all my loose change yesterday and all accounts are rounded down. I have the day to myself today as bf is off on a cadet camp, but I don't know what to do! I'm in two minds to go into town but not really sure if I can be bothered, and I'll probably end up spending money that I shouldn't be!

    Have a nice day everyone xx

    I think it's been o the cards for a few days but last night he was really nice and it felt like things were going to be o.k - this morning he announced that he's cancelled the car insurance and last night he shouldn't have led me to believe things were going to be o.k
