Good luck! You should enquire whether you're entitled to any money for buying outfits to go to interviews etc. Sometimes the job centres help with that stuff under certain circumstances.

Me too, such an unexpected outcome! But a happy one. I just hope she isn't too traumatised.

I heard about Shannon at my friends house yesterday. Its great news, Hopefully she's alright and gets taken home soon.

----------

Thanks everyone for the wishes. I got to the place just before half 9 in and got interviewed at 10 (had to fill in a form and questionair first). The interview lasted no more than 5 mins, as the man (can't remember his name, think its Ian now sure) Anyways, he had 28 people to interview and had to choose 2 or 3 to come back for a second interview to be at the place for the whole day to do stuff in the workplace etc. Anyways, the guy was really nice. Very understanding, told him about school that i left with nothing due to illness so i went into college and finsihed then mum became ill with cancer. So work hadn't been in mind for a while. He was alright and was human about it all if that makes sence.
Anyho, the interview went well. I enjoyed it. Even though in my mind i was like i aint gonna be picked but don't matter as it was a lovely experiance.
So after me interview met up with me mate Amy, went to Borders... Bought nothing! :blink: (very very weird and strange for us two) went back to hers, almost fell asleep so I decided to head home just after 5.
Called me mum on me way home and she told me i had got a call from the workplace asking if I could call them back. They didn't say what it was to me mum (why don't they ever do that?) they just asked if i could. So got home, called em and they've invited me back this monday from 11:30 to Half 8.
I'm excited and rather nervous. I wouldn't mind the job but i'm slightly worried about it all.
Its sales and marketing, and I'll be knocking on people's doors trying to sell them EON (Electricity and Gas). That don't bother me, but what does if the transportation. I can't drive. Haven't even had one driving lesson in my life so I'd hate to get it and be told i gotta go on the far side of town where the bus route (which in Cov, are pretty shite) I'll hate it.
So I'm gonna see what happens on Monday, and i will address this as there really isn't any point in me doing it if i can't get to the places.
If i could drive i'd be fine. But i can't. And at the moment I can't afford the bus passes and i don't trust west mids travel. Esp if i gotta work late, which might be the case.
Blessed be, Geo Toni x~X~x

Wow, so out of 28 people they choose you as one of the 3? That's excellent, well done! You must've made a really good impression. It's a shame about the transport problem but hopefully you'll be able to sort something out or find a job that's easier to get to. Good luck for your day thing on monday. ^_^

I am soooooo tired! I went to bed at 1:30 AM, fell asleep by 2:00 AM, and suddenly woke up at 5:10 AM, hungry like I hadn't eaten in a week. Two hours of trying to ignore the feeling and not manageing to fall back to sleep, I get up. It is now 2:05 PM, and I have had three hours sleep. As much as I wish I was a vampiric character in 'Twilight' (they don't sleep), I am not. I am tired. I want to sleep. I can not wait until 10:00 PM tonight, so I can go to bed. 10:00 PM for those of you who don't know is, for me, the earliest that is reasonable for me to go to bed :P TIRED!!!!!!

*feels for you*

I didn't go to bed last night until 12.

Woke up at about 8am though because of my guinea pig drinking from her bottle.

Hope you get sleepies tonight!

*Hugs Nienna and Melissa* I know how you guys feel. But my sleepless acts the past two nights are because i have been quite stressed.
And yeah its about Monday.
And i've come to a desion about it as its been constantly on my mind ever since friday night and well its not been good. I don't think sales and marketing with reguards to door to door aspect of it is the best choice for me, so i'm gonna cancel the second appointment. I mean interview. Not that i'm not happy that they liked me, i realy am. Its just I don't feel that confident enough "if i get it" going all over Coventry on my own using the bus routes and going door to door. If i had a car it would be different but I'm not happy. So when the woman calls me back tomorrow before the time i should be there i'm gonna tell them thanks for the 2nd chance but its not for me at this current time.

Now thats off my chest there is something else thats been worrying me, which hopefully next week i'll get sorted too.

For a while now, probably 6 months I've sometimes had slight pain under my left arm pit. I never really thought about it and just guessed it as whatever. But this month so far i've been getting it a bit more often.
I'm always checking myself and i can not feel any lumps, but niether did me mum. She just had the pain.
I'm not trying to get worried about it cus its prob nothing, but its been there for a while coming and going, and now i'm noticing it more oftern i wanna get it checked out. Hopefully its nothing and just some annoying spot or my body telling me to get a better bra! LoL! But yeah, its kinda getting to me. And i don't wanna tell me mum, god no! Cus she has been worrying enough about me this past week and i don't want her thinking that i could go through the same as her.

Sorry for the long post, i just needed somewhere to post and this was the only place i feel comfortable atm posting. Esp at this last bit.
Blessed be, Geo Toni x~X~x

Geo, I think you've made the right decision about the job - sales door to door is a difficult and often dangerous job and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

*hugs* to you, I'm sure the right job will come along soon.

Hope everything's ok health wise too.

I never could sell candies for school or anything going door to door.

It's not very safe, and you do have to have mode of transportation of your own to do that -quick get away if needed-

Like what Ginger said, i wouldn't recommend it either to anybody.

I thought when you described the job first time, that it was a desk job.

Pretty sure something better will come around. Just have to keep on looking ^.^

Sometimes it literally takes a couple of months -which is sucky-


The pain that your talking about doesn't sound very normal. If you family has a history of breast cancer anywhere within it, it's your best chance to have that looked at ASAP.

Really hope that's not it. Maybe you just pulled a muscle from lifting something too heavy *prays that's it* or maybe the way you slept or something.

Hope all is okay

Hugs geo. hope everything is ok. You should go to the doctor just to put your mind at rest if nothing else. I was having a really bad pain around that area too for months and it turned out I was wearing a bra that was too small. As soon as I started wearing the righ size it was fine. It will probably turn out to be something simple. :)

As for the job I'd say it's a good idea not to go ahead if you're not comfortable. I'm sure you'll get something else that's more convenient for you.

OH it's not Richard.

But it took me a moment to remember who's name it was when i was Edward.

Sorry random, but i did see his name.
