I just can not tell you how frustrating it is waiting to here about this job. I have been sat here over the last 2 days waiting for the email and still nothing.

sadly, i wouldn't recognise them unless they were in their kit!

or can that action be generalised to anyone with nice legs and bum?! (a downside of potentially being arrested?)

Ah that is a terrible problem, there is always Catch 22!
I am going to be forced to make a serious post in that case.

I am not trying to wind anyone up ANd frankly I find it rather upsetting that everyone hates me.

Well maybe not everyone - more like only a comfortable majority. :cheesy:
But it starts with you hating yourself.
Which you with our encouragement may have put a bit right compared with a year ago but this rate is not fast enough for the exigencies of life which does not stand still esp. now.
As you and we are not adequate for purpose I recommended you repeatedly from nearly a year back to get counselling which AFAIK you did not do.
I suggest after your last exam, while you still rate as student, go back and try while student counselling service is still available.
They are anyway probably used to post-exam depressions. They may even be preparing for a rush right now!
More easy for them than most services to understand your particular concerns. (IMHO you are not such a difficult case.)
Else outside you take your place in more of a scrum where you don't maybe know your way around so well.
Edit: and you may end up paying for it - now there's a motivation!

If I can add 1 more thing, if you have apologised once or enough to ppl. you have !!!!!! off don't insist any more. (If you liked yourself more you'd need their good wishes less - but get it more.) A lot of us will forgive you more when we hear you have done your last exam and you felt it was (i) not too bad or else (ii) not too good but you've now done what you could and now it is a question of move on. Even though you don't know where to. Like a lot of ppl if not everyone. But we will not forgive so easily e.g. unconstructive bitter regrets about the last 3 yrs

Given that there is another thread about mediums, tarot, distance reading, tea leave reading .. can I possibly suggest that someone is carrying out a reading of used toilet paper

Dear Ivan, whilst I first thought you had just made a typo in your post above (tea leave - tea leaf), you may well have stumbled across a whole new area that might even allow proper scientific scrutiny. Whereas mediums, tarot, cold reading etc.etc are for the stupid and gullible, I'd suggest that it might be possible to gain a real insight into someone based on the amount of tea they leave in a cup.

Perhaps your slip on the keyboard will result in a whole new industry? It could be extended to small items of food left on a plate - the point at which you stub out your fag and so on. The list is endless.

I hesitate in posting this message on a public forum just in case The Great DOCTOR gillian mckeith (Ph b***dy D - courtesy of a non-accredited US "University" - via mail order) sees it and decides to use the idea as the basis for some serious research. Serious in relation to her current obssesion with the love of shovelling around bowls of other peoples s**t, and her quaint notion that green foods are good because they may be processed in a similar method to photosynthesis by the human body.

I must admit I do find the latter really funny. Apart from the absolute fact that the body just can't work like this, any attempt to make it do so would involving shoving a light source (big overhead tube?) up the rear passage of anyone wishing to prove her right.
