catmag 336 Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 After two previous tests I now have an interview followed by another paper exercise/test for a job I've been after. Its a right fuck on but it's the only show in town atm. Fingers crossed from the nice people please, cloven hooves crossed from the rest. Hope it goes really well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7008 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Mildly nervous. Got an interview this afternoon to turn my 12month secondment into a permanent post. Being interviewed by my 2 managers which will make it a bit odd as I'm not used to being interviewed by people I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The down side is I have to go to work straight after so I get to see everyone going in for interview after me and then sit and wait to see if I have the job. It will be a fun last few hours if I don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30368 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (it's some code to validate postcode formats), someone has already done it, it's difficult to do, if you've never done it before theres no chance your knocking up a working one in an hour, so why bloody claim you did it. Pah, I did that in BBC Basic for my GCSE computers over ten years ago. Piece of piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4709 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Fabulous mood Sitting here like the Lord of the manor at Maften Hall, in the conservatory overlooking the lake and Golf course while sipping a Kronnenburg. Started the day with a stroll around Hexham, some lunch, a cream tea in the drawing room followed by a Sauna, steam bath, jaccuzi and swim....... All kid free! Table booked in the library for seven and then a few night caps on the terrace looking at the stars and my lovely mrs. How the other half live!

Tooj 17 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Ireland are sending Jedward to Eurovision again. But on the plus side, Austria have chosen this bit of barminess: we can't afford to win it so we have to, if we sent anyone else we'd walk it again! Good old Father Ted.

Howmanheyman 32824 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I remember a Scouse kid joining our group on holiday years ago. I've never seen anyone get as drunk as quickly as this kid did whilst drinking with us, honestly, three pints and he was away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42129 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) Bit of a dilemma- we ( my business) sub-contract a regular job from a guy( lets call him Bob). He has always told the client that we were his employees, which was annoying but we said nowt. Today, the client called us aside after work and said they knew we were subbys, not a problem, they weren't happy with Bob and would we be interested in the contract if they couldn't resolve their issues with him. We've been asked to submit a proposal for the contract, and reading between the lines, if we match or beat Bob's price, they have no intention of " resolving the issues"with him. . It's as good as ours. Here's the dilemma- when we set up, Bob provided us with a fair amount of work, and although he has brought the issues on himself, we'd still feel a bit shit about taking the work. ( a bit like banging your mate's lass the night after she dumps him ). The flipside to that is that over the last year , the amount of work Bob has brought us has reduced to , basically, this contract. So, looks like he's going to lose it , we have been asked to quote it, if we get it , Bob will spit the dummy. Thoughts lads ? ( I already know what we are gojng to do btw, just wondering if anyone has been in a similar scenario?)
