    Okay, I've given in and have applied for 6 jobs today.

    You have not given in. You have made adjustments because circumstances have changed, as indeed anyone sensible would do.

    When your circumstances change again, you will adjust - again.

    Thanks everyone :)

    I've done two articles for TB today, which amount to £7. I've got another one lined up and will try and get at least 5 done today. One has already been accepted, so I'm hoping I will get a nice payout at the end of the week.

    I have officially left 63336. I can't stand the company any more and just want rid of them. The way they have treated people is disgusting. I will get paid the pathetic £11.65 I've got on my account at the beginning of next month.

    Onwards and upwards as they say.

    Sometimes it's best to just walk away entirely. Hope the job applications work out for you

    I've just picked up a big article on TB which should earn me at least £11.50. I'll get that done tomorrow though.

    Afternoon :)

    No news on the job front yet. I got an email from one of the new stores I applied for, saying that they're opening on 3rd October and they will contact me soon for an interview. There's also a job at M&S that I'm going to apply for (my mum will love the discount!!).

    I'm doing okay on TB, but could have stepped it up over the weekend admittedly. I'm up to just over £24 so far. I got that big article done and got an excellent rating from the client, so pleased with that. I've done 2 further articles today too.

    Have to say, I'm seriously not missing the questions!!
