Sounds like a V. Productive week! You'll smash this interview.
Glad you had fun at SW4... my OH ended up going home at 4pm because his flatmate (who he went with) got himself in such a state he had to be escorted home...... So what a huge waste for him! So glad you enjoyed it! Have literally no idea how people spend hundreds in a day festival..... I can understand a weekend fest because you at least end up running out of food/alcohol but for one day!? Madness!
Good luck with interview prep.... Empathise with the 'sunday sweats' I've been getting them too.Big cuddles for you, you've had a lot on!

Hello, well done on surviving SW4. Keep doing what you are doing and don't let anyone at work get to you. Remember they are stuck there forever whilst you are going to go onwards and upwards. I hate the Sunday feeling too. That's why I come on here so you can cheer me up. You are not on your own. We must focus on what we are aiming for to stay happy.:beer:Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

Hi everyone! :wave:
I'm currently perched on the sofa watching Judge Judy... guilty pleasure
I'm cooking my dinner, so once I've eaten I plan on doing the following:
- Read through my interview research & make more notes.
- Prep. meals for Thursday.
- List some more Ebay items.
- Earn some SB's.
My expenses have been paid so my CC has returned to £0.00 and I'm feeling positive... I just can't shake this 'mopey' feeling I have

Eeeeeeekkk! The quicker time is ticking away, the more nervous I'm getting! :eek::eek::eek:
So tomorrow, I'm going to leave an hour prior to my interview (it's approx. 30 minutes away).
I'm bringing my CV and notes with me.
I'm just petrified I haven't prepared enough..!
Bring on post interview when I can de-stress by cleaning the flat, getting into my onesie with my friend, having a takeaway and drinking prosecco! :TFTB House Deposit - £28,505.00 / £40,000 - 71.26%

Morning everyone! :j
I am a very happy bunny! Yesterday went really well!
I went for the interview & half way through, the interviewer stopped the interview & said "well, I'm very happy. I'd like you to come back in and meet XXX"
They were honest and said they were interviewing several people, so I need to be realistic.
The recruiter rang me back the same day & I've got a second (and final) interview on Friday afternoon! Luckily I already have a half-day, so booking more time off won't be an issue.
As luck would have it, I then got an e-mail from the HR Manager of the company I previously went for a job interview for who withdrew their vacancy, saying the same role is available at their other Surrey office location (which is closer to me!) and would I mind if she put my CV forward!
Woohoo!! :j
Celebrated with a takeaway, wine, lovely company and a good movie.
Can honestly say I'm on a high :T Going to the local Wetherspoons for the £2.00 fry-up this morning & going to a friend's for dinner tonight too
On the topic of money - aware I've drifted a bit! - I'll be using the CC tonight, but with a few survey pay-outs, I'll be able to clear this before next payday.FTB House Deposit - £28,505.00 / £40,000 - 71.26%
