Hi Dedicated,


It sounds like you have had a rubbish week. I hope it gets better. x


The very BEST of luck of with your assignment: you are so near the end now you must be able to smell it! The feeling of freedom once it is over will be AMAZING!


I look forward to seeing your celebration posts of how it's all over and how you will be happy to spend your summer doing absolutely NOTHING except looking for a new job! :J

You're doing well. Assignment may be the priority but you're still sticking with MSE ing. It'll soon all be over and done with and then you really will reap the rewards. Stay strong.

All the best here too, you'll have achieved such a lot and it's great to know that even when the job seems really grotty, everything else you're doing can make it easier for you to get out of there! Hope you have a better week! [/COLOR]

Hope next week is better.

I always struggle with the eBay app on my iPad, so,it must be really difficult with a phone. It's annoying when something you were after slips through your fingers due to technology. This afternoon I was having a quick surf on the computer with no problems. Then I went on to eBay to bid on a jigsaw, at the very last moment, and the Internet decided to go down right at that second, and I missed out on the jigsaw, which went for a very low price. GRRRRR !

Thank you all for your supportive words - yep frustrating Goldie - especially when you miss out on a bargain like that.

Unfortunately the working week has not started well either - my assignment is due in this week and i should have been able to take some time off but now have to work all week instead There is nothing i can do about it and no point in complaining as in terms of how these things are done nothing has been done wrong I had been hoping for the best and had also been hoping to be further along with my assignment.

Spent my lunch getting nowhere in queues so that was a bit of a waste although bay of e parcels did get posted. The rest of the places i'll need to go back to :mad:

Am expecting some bad feedback on the bay too - had 2 people pay me on friday and have had lots of messages asking where the item is :mad: The items had of course ended before friday so frustrating.

I work better with a list and also with my butterfly nature with breaks from constant study work so i will pop a list on and get on with it as this will ease the pressure of other things bothering me too (the fact that its on 'paper' and will get done). I will reply more fully to you all when i get the chance

Wow, it all sounds a bit manic at the moment.

Look after yourself, you'll burn out at this rate.

As for the ebayers......I despair sometimes - is there no common sense left in the world?
