Woo Hoo!

Today Joe, my lovely husband, went for a 2nd interview and got the job! I'm so chuffed for him. It's closer to home (can go on the bus which will take 15 mins as opposed to the 40 minimum in the car he does now) it's more money and it's better hours! Just so happy. He's got to work his notice (4 weeks) and then it's bye bye to the company that treat him like rubbish and hello to a lovely new job! Woo hoo!

Interview Preparation

A couple of weeks ago I wrote asking advice about writing a supporting letter. Well thanks for the advice. I've now got an interview pending! I'm not really sure how to prepare for this. Has anyone got recent experience they could share, good ideas about questions that come up, how to prepare, etc. I'd be really grateful for any inspiration. Thanks and Happy Easter to everyone! AOB

Good Purchase

My boyfriend has just bought one of these. It is small and stands up like a photo frame. You insert the memory card from your digital camera into it, and it plays a loop of the photos. You can alter the speed at which it plays them. Not sure why he's bought it - probably because it's a gadget he hasn't got! I've got my eye on it for work, in order to show parents photos of their children at parent's eves etc.

Anyway, her mum is the head teacher of a small private school (reception to year 6). She has just got the job of the head at another private school - but a much bigger one. She doesn't start until September but is working quite closely with the deputy who is acting as manager at the moment, in order to get a few things in place before she starts in Sept. Anyway, the students mum rang me up last week and said that the new school she is going to, need a manager for th…
