    I have got another 2 applications in with them. So, hopefully something might come of that. :) Plenty more to go. Still chasing Merlin Entertainments for my feedback from 5 weeks ago. I keep emailing them and getting no response my next move is letters. :mad:

    I think it's really rude of companies not to provide feed back to help people to at least make improvements where needed at future interviews. I know with a big recruitment drive the numbers of unsuccessful candidates is high, but a short paragraph would suffice. Anyone doing interviews should be taking notes anyway. Even if it's just a scoring system, an explanation of what the scores mean would help.
    I wish you massive luck. It's not easy finding a job anywhere at the moment but it's bad here with the demise of all those civil service jobs recently.

    Successful shop in Mr T's today. Found the glitching gammon joints for £2 each rather then £5.99.

    oooh what do these look like :)
    TIA
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time

    Hi everyone,


    You can't see me waving - my smilie wotsits aren't working! Not sure what I've done there.


    I did post once, a really long time ago when I found some cheap crisps and was beside myself with excitement, but l mostly lurk.


    Thank you to everyone for finding and sharing your finds, and for sharing a bit about your lives - you are all fab! I promise to share if I find something interesting - I keep looking.


    This may have been mentioned already and I've missed it, but I received a HD delivery from our friends at Sada today. APG in really quickly, BUT showed my original order AND all of the substitutions as well!


    First time I've had that happen and it threw the results right out!


    Don't like it. Shall I call and complain?


    Just joking lol.

    I have a very good sense of humour and could have taken this in the context im sure it was meant had you also offered the information that others have and told me where I could find the search box. Instead I cant help but feel that some people on here think they are being clever. I now remember why I left this thread years ago. Im all for having a laugh but when people are asking for a little bit of help I also find it pleasurable to actually just help them. I have spent the last few days helping new glitchers find their way with the catfood but then see on here when people ask questions they are met with contempt. Its such a shame as one time many years ago this was such a friendly and helpful place. Yes I agree people can read the posts and find information for themselves but it can be tricky when you are just learning or when the thread moves as fast as it does. It was much easier years ago with only a few people on this band wagon.

    I have the information I required now anyway so thanks to those who were helpful.

    Happy to help;)

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    That's a bit unfair :( anyone who spends time on this thread knows what Nerfs sense of humour is like. They also know he'd never offend anyone or be unhelpful. This would be a very dull place without the mixture of different characters we have here.
    Your question was answered promptly by several people. I think you are being over-sensitive

    I actually totally agree with Claire here...it doesnt take much to respond to a query regarding feedback a few short lines is all thats needed and sometimes very welcome ....I wish 3010 luck for the future and hope its not too long before we are celebrating an offer with you!
