    Hey all,
    Good news-had my second interview today and it went BRILLIANTLY! I was in with the CEO and a marketing consultant for over 2.5 hours! I just had a call from the recruitment consultant and she said I did brilliantly and we're starting to talk packages (shut up Len!) because I'll get company car etc.
    I'm sooooo happy!
    My NEW goal is to get all my debt paid off in 6 years-halving what it is at the minute...

    WHat wonderful news Bunny, very happy for you :j:beer:. I must say that what you have said sounds very encouraging; company car as well brilliant Hey Bunny, I leave my current employ in 6 years with a healthy pensiopn maybe we could run away together :DLets talk packages.......

    Hey EBQ sorry to hear you're having rough time and feeling down. Some big statements there that I hope are not completley irretrievable. Would telling him EXACTLY what you posted above help or would that be too much. Big hugs to you and keep posting . Len

    A magazine sold by really big homeless people? Which part of "chat" is causing you the most confusion?

    I wish it were that simple, I can't even say why because that'd cause more trouble.

    I just got a letter from child tax credit folks - "dear ms spice, if your expected income for 08-09 is the same as 07-08 we will be reducing your payment by £20 every four weeks"! any ideas???? maybe they'd underpaid in the past is my guess but grrrrrrrr!!!! given inflation etc I thought it might have gone up a tiny bit...

    Find people who you can talk to and PM them. A problem shared is a problem halfed. :grouphug:
