    Can I be the silent cheering section?

    Piq, Piq, she's our gal, if she can't do it no one shall
    Does she deserve it, yes she does!
    So give her a chance & give her the job!

    Good luck, keep thinking lots of nice calm thoughts, you'll be brilliant

    Oh wow I've never had cheerleaders before. I shall picture you all in pompoms before I go in to the interview!

    Bad news. The interviewer isn't well, stomach upset.:(:(

    The agency guy sounded as gutted as I feel, but it isn't his fault and there isn't anything he can do. The interviewer wants to reschedule for January.

    I told the chap how very interested I was in the job and felt that I was the right person with the right experience for it and please could he pass that on for me. I also found out that there's only three candidates in the running which is promising.

    Still very fed up....but I'm not going to let it get to me. I've already sorted out a kitchen cupboard and I plan to finally put the filing to rest. I'll clear the paperwork that's hanging around the kitchen and do some baking for Christmas.

    Put your pompoms away, you'll be needing them in January and I don't want to hear that they no longer fit because of all you've eaten at Christmas!

    PS. You know how some cats look very big until they get wet and it turns out it was all fur? Guess who looks fat when wet?

    Oh Piq how disappointing! Never mind, the extra info about the other candidates will give you hope, and at least you can relax over Christmas and mentally prepare. Pom poms relaxed for now..
  • Oh what a shame, hope they can reschedule early in January for you x
