    I have a turd of an XH you can come kill if you want? That should get out some emotional baggage. I googled hitmen but it never shows a price list.

    I have down, over whelmed days and I am a battle axe.. I take no crap from anybody and I get on and sort stuff. If I can't sort it then it isn't worth worrying about because it will sort itself in its own time.

    I will admit the months leading up to moving here were about as traumatic as it gets.. prem baby the hospital tried to kill, PTSD, my gran died, Christmas, the nasty woman we bought the house from !!!!!! us about something chronic.. it was not fun... but you get through it because it is all just stuff.

    You will be back to yourself in a few days and these few crappy days will have taught you something new about yourself.

    Until you feel better.. ((((hugs)))) and good luck for new job.

  • Thanks, it seems they like to recruit internally through promotion, as I lost out to an internal last time.

    As yet I don't why I didnt get it but they have just advertised a job the level below the one I interviewed for, so for the time being can only assume someone got a promotion, which is great for them and excellent for me should I ever get in there.
  • Bah, I know how irritating it is to interview and then lose out to internal. Good luck for future interviews!
