    Well I'm back :D I did have a bit of a teary day yesterday on and off but fought the good fight and today feel a lot better. Think maybe i was exhausted mainly....though i still don't want to log into evilbay cos it will just set me off again if there is another venomous message!!

    Thanks again for all your lovely messages! :A xxxx

    On the plus money side i have had a few people contact me on fb for their invoices so need to get stuck into sorting that today. Also planning on going back to my 10,000 steps challenge shortly now i have other things more sorted.

    Off now to check one poll and do a few earning clicks, then will sort another few photos for listing on fb, then sorting invoices....then a million and one other things lol :p:p

    well just got rejection email for school job, no interview :(

    I have no idea how anyone gets interviews at school jobs, as they always ask for sims experience of which I have none. although sims is just a database and I have plenty of experience of that, more than most, as I used to used them at advanced level.

    Oh well, start new job thursday. Just working out it is going to cost me a fortune in easter holiday unless can get friend to look after DS for free :(

    something very strange, the email has disappeared! I have checked everywhere, spam, bin, trash, sent, important, etc and it is not there! I have emailed to ask if they recalled it as I wanted to show DH

    Hi Aesop,
    Sorry you didn't get the interview, did you get any feedback? What I wanted to say was that Sims, as you would expect, is pretty simple though it does have its quirks. I stepped into covering a job at my son's school a couple of year's ago as an emergency and more or less taught myself after a couple of lessons from the disinterested office manager. Is there any chance that you could get someone in your new job to show it to you, or let you shadow them doing some of the stuff on there. Its not the same as experience, but it would allow you to say you were familiar with it.

    ooooh maybe they sent it accidentally....fingers crossed for that anyway.

    Just in case you do get an interview after all this might be useful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSVQ_G68AeM&list=PL8BeoM21AsMwUBeJfxBP__SfUH6xZfog7 and this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCGJugc-TmQ&list=PLLQoSdPedDrE1VZJMT3PxBW7dz8sosdcB
    There seem to be quite a few videos on there which if you watched you could talk about Sims from a more knowledgeable perspective maybe?

    I've earned £14 for writing an assortment of random items on Textbroker and done 5 mystery shops today for £55. I've got bids on a couple of my eBay items, added a few more last night. Also sold a book on Amazon for £3.60 after fees and postage.

    Something strange though - I added a Buy it Now price on one of my auctions, as a buyer agreed a price with me. It came up saying the fee would be Free. I then went in to revise some other auctions, they also said Free for adding a BIN, so thought I might as well. Yesterday I realised that they had charged me 50p for each one! Eventually got a callback, very patronising eBay person who lectured me and pretty much said I was making it up but she did say they would refund me. Hope they do, as not making much profit anyhow on some of the auctions, could do without even more fees. I wouldn't have done a BIN on the other items, only did so as it said they were free, so felt misled.
