so far so good for me. I will have to go to bed at 9 so I dont cheat and end the day on an up note.

I havent told you girls but I have been interviewing for a promotion at work and I just found out I made it to the 4th stage.

I helped my friend with her business today and made £20!

Great news about the promotion. I shall keep everything crossed for you. 4th stage? How many stages are there:eek:

Ahh to live in a house with kids. I'm jealous

Yes she did, how one earth did you know ?!! :rotfl:

Fantastic news re possible promotion, how many more stages do you need to get through, 4 already sounds bad enough to me ? Keeping everything crossed for you x

4th stage?
Are they copying some sort of shocking dance / sing type show which goes on forever?
Best of luck!

I have 8 years seniority
And these interviews are crazy
I can't be charming anymore
So promote me, maybe!

As a matter of interest, NL, how many candidates are left after the third cut?

Erm, they're not filming the process are they? :eek:

I have no idea how many. My comapany's usual policy is that you have to interview at least 7 times. you would think they would at least have a panel, but actually it is like death by a thousand paper cuts

Seven times?!! :eek:

..Makes me wish I was a shareholder; would be fun trying to change some of the company's more insane policies at the AGM!

that insane policy is just the tip of the iceberg

Hey up sis. Funny you should mention starting a diary - I have been thinking I should, it could be a place for fun and chat when we can talk about anything other than debt. We have had so many chuckles these last few weeks and it would be good to have them all in one place - the only thing that concerns me is that I may be 'outed' if someone from RL stumbles across it - we often reveal much of ourselves in our endeavours to offer support to each other and for me certainly, it's easier to do this if I just pop up on peoples diaries at random. I see you all here, at Piq's and Robins so don't miss much.

Have had a sh1te week but my sister is coming over tomorrow with her DGD and my DGD will be here (Mr Dot is away) so we are having a girly evening and neither of us can wait.

I am so pleased that Piq is coming to yours to help with the garden and can see fistfulls of dollars being offered - rejected - insisted upon - rejected (what are you two like) and am proper jealous, I would love to b there with me wellies and wheelbarrow. Make sure you tell us all about it, won't you?
