...did a great interview for a job a couple of weeks ago, aced it though I say so myself. Of course I didn't get the job, some other git came along and "out aced" me, and I wish whoever it was every success (with just a soupçon of abject failure). Yesterday I got a call from an agency, which resulted in an interview this afternoon, and by the time I got home and changed (from my "give me a job or else" suit) I got a phone call offering me the job.
It's not the best job in the world but it is a job and, atheism notwithstanding, the lord knows it's been a long time coming. So I start Monday [which means I'll probably be sacked by Thursday] but for now I am somewhat relieved and can stop the breaking and entering, which was murder on the old nerves.
Have a great weekend, I know I will.

Congratulations, Red. There's nothing like getting back into a routine.
-
Excellent news, Red. Having had a wee bout of joblessness myself last year,
I know it's not fun. Celebrate and enjoy the knowledge that someone has realised your worth. Hope it goes from strength to strength for you.
:)
-
Good news at last. Will be sending lots of positive thoughts your way on Monday (y)

Thank you folks [and minion], it has been a time coming and the sense of relief... It was a good day for me, my wife came back from a weeks holiday and I did an interview and got the job, my kind of Friday :D
-
Well done Red hope you like the work.
So, you changing your name now to Breadwinner?
-
Great news, Red. You'll be running the place in no time!
-
Thank you Max and Roger. It's amazing how much guilt I laid upon myself because I wasn't the breadwinner, we had to dip into savings as well and I of course managed to guilt trip myself on that too...for an atheist I have almost catholic guilt levels ;D
As for running the place Roger...already there, I'll be running the office and managing three part-time staff; at sixty years of age I'll also be the youngest employee, I suspect there's a zimmer frame cupboard somewhere...

So, he's Roger and we're just folks?

Truly sorry Mince didn't even realise I had promoted you to folk status, thanks for letting me know, I'll amend the original post shortly.

Don't let it happen again.

Says the man who 'introduced' me to his mother in person but three days ago (more on that later), and yet I still only know her as 'Mincey's Mum'. ..0
-
And now I'm forgetting my own manners. Many congratulations, Red. Excellent news!

Thanks Tarks [or "folk"], it looks as though it might turn out to be a bit of an weird job, but my last one was like that and I loved it so no worries!
