    Thanks tea. I'm not even sure if I want them to offer it or not.

    Was just thinking about this on my walk around asda and the odds are very much in your favour for a good result:

    Option A - they offer it and you want it. Good
    Option B - they offer it and you don't want it. Still good as you're choosing what you currently have
    Option C - they don't offer it and you don't want it. Good
    Option D - they don't offer it but you would quite like it. Technically the worst option but still not awful as there's clearly good things about your current job and you did really well to get through loads of interviews and tests.

    So basically there is no way you can lose :D

    No! :p

    Option A: offer second date, says yes :)
    Option B: offer second date, says no :(
    Option C: offer second date, hear nothing :(
    Option D: offer second date, says yes, then same thing happens again next week regarding potential date 3 until I give up and admit defeat :(:rotfl:

    Clearly there are more bad options than good options in this case!

    Mmmm....coffee and kisses.....mmmmm:D I'd settle for just the coffee.

    I felt panicked last night about being properly back at work, but I feel a lot better now.

    Got most of my annoying little tasks out of the way.

    WaS, are you out of the duvet fort yet or do I have to fetch a shoe horn? (Does anyone have a shoe horn these days? Do you youngsters even know what it is?)

    Tea - the easiest question is: do you want to see him again?
    If yes then text, else find new man;

  • You all know I'm mentally arranging these options through AND, IF, NOT and OR gates...? :)

    Option A: offer second date, says yes :).......You know where you stand:T
    Option B: offer second date, says no :(.......You know where you stand:T
    Option C: offer second date, hear nothing :(.......(give yourself a time frame, say 12hours). If you hear nothing, you know where you stand. :T
    Option D: offer second date, says yes, then same thing happens again next week regarding potential date 3 until I give up and admit defeat :(:rotfl: .......If same thing were to happen again, forget it straight away! You know where you stand! :T

    Clearly there are more bad options than good options in this case!

    So in all cases, you know where you stand and can move on accordingly! :T:T:T

    Tea, I'm not sure but I think Pyxis might think you should ask Mr HL out :rotfl:

    Hbs, if only we could control everything with code. Although I've pretty much sent myself into an infinite loop.

    Is it wrong that I'm really mad at this company for ruining my Christmas break with this bs?

    Not at all code, I'm pretty mad at them myself :rotfl:. They could at least have the decency to call you!
