Think of it this way....if you can cope with Mr S_A, coats, man bags and all you can cope with an interview. Best thing I've found is to remember that you would like the job but you don't need it.8

Morning, happy Wednesday.
Last day to prep for the interview, although I have tomorrow morning for a last minute cram. Although I'll be disappointed if I don't get it, I really enjoy the job I do now so it won't be the end of the world and plenty of similar roles are coming up so there'll be more to apply for. I'm really only looking to move for the extra £9k a year and the extra pension. I won't just apply for anything for the money though, I need to know I'll enjoy the role.

It's DD's birthday today, not very well timed as it was DS's just before Christmas. It would also have been my mum's birthday today. DD wasn't due until the end of January/early February so it was a lovely birthday present for my mum that she was born 3 weeks early on her birthday.

Happy Birthday to your DD and good luck for the interview tomorrow. You won't need luck though, you're very well prepared. Are you tempted to barricade the bedroom door in case Mr SA decides to wander? He is a bit too good at sabotage, whether intentional or not.6
