Afternoon all,

Please keep a few things crossed for me tomorrow, around about 10.30 would be good!

Thank you! smile

They have both, but on both occasions (1st interview and second) they have called me on my mobile.

I think it's brilliant that you are being chosen to go to as many interviews as you are, in your area. That's no consolation to you unless you get a job that you like, but it's nice to know that there are jobs out there.

Come on phoenix, onwards and upwards from here. I'm sorry you didn't get the job, but you're such a doggedly determined woman that I'm sure you'll keep going until just the right job comes along.
But you could probably do with a wine (((hug))) and some flowers in the meantime. smile

Sorry to hear your news phoenix but as my old dad used to say - it's a numbers game, which means don't take it personally, but keep plugging away because the job that's just right for you is out there somewhere.

Thank you all.

It's 2 years next month since I was made redundant. I am finding it very hard to feel "positive" at the moment.
