    Hello all :hello: Welcome back Bunny :hello:

    Today I will be mostly sitting at my desk praying for 4pm, so bored. Have seen a couple of other jobs that look interesting but I don't really have quite enough experience for them, dunno whether to give it a go anyway or if it's a waste of time... :confused:

    Redquirrel, go for it - you don't have quite enough experience? But you almost do? How can you make up for that lack of experience? What else have you got to offer - why else should they employ you? Do loads of interview prep and then go get 'em girl! :D

    Absolutely gutted. Just got through to that free pontins holiday thing after 20 mins. Managed to get 30th June at prestatyn but apparently Ste now can't get the time off. :cry:

    Can you ask Ste to check which weeks he could get holiday for, and then ring them back and see if they can change the dates for you?

    I checked all the dates in July and there was nothing. Any earlier in June would be too short notice. :(

    I know you're right, don't know what I'm worried about except for having yet another interview where they tell me I was good but "someone else had more experience" - it doesn't seem like anyone wants to take someone with potential on and train them in the things they don't know, suppose you can't blame them really, but how do you get out of that lack of experience loop??

    Will take the job descriptions home and have a good think over the weekend, they've both got a few weeks till closing date at least.

    Does he get the weekend off?? Could he maybe get a Monday off? That way you could have a long weekend at least?
