    What a b*mmer - poor you. How careless of the agency, and frustrating all round. But maybe it happened because something much better is lurking just round the next corner for you.... Will continue keeping fingers paws and hooves crossed for you here.

    I agree with this statement and feel if they don't want you it's their loss and keeps you available for better things. Fingers crossed that it was nowhere near as bad as you believe but hex on the agency for that major b^lls up. (Big hugs)

    So sorry you were let down. At least it wasn't your fault. But that doesn't help you get a job. Something else will come along.
    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?

    B*ll*cks :mad:. Keep your chin up :grouphug:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Aww piq, sorry to hear about the interview, bl00dy agency person wants stringing up :mad: an appalling error by them, hopefully the interviewers could see that it wasn't your fault & will still give you proper consideration for the job.

    Hope all goes well at the Job Centre today.

    What a horribly frustrating day. I think you certainly need a word with the agency. I would have been fuming, especially as going to an interview you are stressed anyway, it must have been an incredibly difficult interview and hats off to you that you managed to see the interview through to the end, calmly and collectively.. Well done you :) x

    Gah, I'm so annoyed on your behalf :mad: :mad: I hope you're going to mention this to the agency? Have a hug :grouphug: in the meantime.
