I didn't get anything done yesterday except:
send ebay parcels
Today, mostly rolled from yesterday:
food shop
bank money
bank cheques
uni work
start using new sewing machine
washing up
unpack from weekend away
shower, straighten hair
Have a good day x
Aw its rotten when you get feedback like thatwas it from the agency itself? I'm sure it wasn't as bad as they made out - you would know if it was!! Feedback is also supposed to be constructive so if it wasn't then they are not doing it properly - I hate it when agencies act like know it alls when they couldn't organise a p**s up in a brewery :mad:

Again, an unproductive day... except for the sewing machine side of things! Tomorrows list is the same as todays, plus meeting work friends for lunch.
Thanks FC, I'd just talked myself into wanting a city job and quitting my current job when I got hit with this... it's put a total downer on my motivation and now I'm wondering if I'll ever be able to get into another industry.
Hope all is well with you happy steppersBecame Mrs Scotland 16.01.16Became homeowners 26.02.16

Good morning Happy Steppers Crew :hello:
PPB I know you're hurting right now but just remember how many rejections J K Rowling got before Bloomsbury signed her up with Harry Potter! Look where she is right now!
If you have set your heart for a job in the City, you go for it girl! Speak to the agency and see if they can give you hints and tips - you need an injection of confidence right now. I enjoy Fairy Jobmother where Hayley helps families get back into employment - it is fascinating and informative. Sending you a major :grouphug:
