Thanks Guys - what else can you do? Smile, say thank you and good luck and move forward. To be honest one of the jobs (the one I wanted the most) wasn't entirely as is appeared on paper...........so perhaps its all for the best.

Well, if you're not hungry, can I borrow your custard? (you can keep the sharks ) we're having 'soup & pudding' here tonight, and it'd save me the bother of getting the cornflour out........ :rotfl:

Sorry you didn't get the job(s). But YAY :T to your super attitude, and I agree with the gang - manifest something better for yourself

Fiends! And foolish fiends at that! Well pah to them -clearly you're WAY too good for them, that's all! Well done to the presentation thing though - did you remember to scrub behind your ears and everything? :rotfl:

Onwards, upwards and forwards...

Pippilongstocking

EH I did indeed.

Greying nice to see you hope you desharked the custard.

Ey up all just in from a van day and team meeting. Not doing too much I promise - appetite is still largely gone so not much food anything happening.

Heard today I can submit my invoice :-) hooray will get to that soon.

Off to out fire on and find a duvet for the sofa :-)

Hope you're all well.

Must do banks etc although after that trip away I'm scared to look.......that set me back about 300

You knew there would be some expenditure that was going to go hand in hand with the job-search though I guess - I still think a half decent company would have offered at least *something* towards the expenses though! Fiends!

Get that invoice in now, and make sure they pay it pronto for goodness sake! :T

Hey up invoice on top of list for jobs over weekend :-)

Yup youre right I knew it be a pricey and had hoped for a contribution, but hey you live and learn and I did get to see two great chums when away so that was a bonus.

And of I'd not spent the money on travel but is prob have frittered it on flowers..........:D

As the travel would have been about £5 from mr rg's flat, we have talked it through and think maybe unless something amazing comes up (or it's travel expensed) that I'll leave job apps that require interviews for a couple months.

Is that sensible or silly?

starnac

If you are both in agreement then I think its sensible.

Pah! To not getting jobs. As others have said, it's their loss. Although I believe that the guy upstairs has something better much better for you.

Chin up lovely. And rest!

Hello lovely Pippi..saw Kris Drever from Lau (Orkney band) yesterday...I immediately thought of you!

Here's to better job opps soon and boo to all those numpties that don't know what they are missing

beanielou

Sensible I think unless it is a real I really really want this type of job.
Just my thought.

I vote sensible too, Pippi - at least if they're not going to fund your travel. You're obviously applying in the right area, you're getting interviews very fast, but that means you could be paying out over and over I bet it was nice to see chums tho - and Mr RG too, did you see him? With his cape on?
