Hi free, Pap, and everyone :hello: :hello:
Well - I had my interview this morning. Went very well, but lasted nearly two hours :eek: . I was told that it would last between 30 minutes and one hour - so I probably spoke too much.
Anyway - the job sounded really good, and they all seemed extremely friendly. Pay would be more than twice what I get at ASDA (but that was never seen as a 'permanent' job - it gives me money to pay the basics).
Problem for me is that it is a 35 mile drive to the depot (70 mile round trip) - that would cost about £10 in petrol and, as we have only the one car, would also restrict my wife.
I'm told that it will be at least ten days before I hear anything, as the depot manager will be on holiday next week I'll try not to give up the ASDA job yet. :rolleyes:
I did spend £2.60 on an 'instore' ham baguette and a 'capuccino' at Morrison's - I needed it after the interview. :rolleyes2I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
