I wouldn't - this was the seventh in this job hunt, one in seven is not a terrific ratio!
Can you enlighten us on what the job entails? Just interested, like. |

Local authority job, performance analyst. Basically monitoring the performance of the community safety team. Corporate bollocks in other words, but apparently corporate bollocks is what I do. |

Fair play Doore. I was interested in where you might get a job in the current climate but I second guessed you. Hmmm. I'm working for the public (and almost public - energy) sector at the mo. Depressing. Gone are the days of a career in British manufacturing industry, aerospace, electronics, computing and just about everything else. Entertainment, computer games and (soon to be disappearing) public sector jobs seem to be the only options. |

Nice one Doore, at least the perseverance paid off. I updated my CV the other week and applied for what looked like the sort of work I want to move in to. I got rejected within an hour  The amount of competition out there is mental. |

I got the 1.4 GP 16v, in carbonio black. Wangled air con out of it too.
Paid 200 quid for my astra 5 years ago, and got near on 3k for it with the scrappage and other discounts
I was given a Fiat Brava 1.9 tdi whilst my car was being fixed. I was quite impressed with the interior but jesus christ it was slower than a week in prison. Had 6 gears but don't think I ever needed 5 or 6 and if I closed my eyes I could have been driving a transit van. Never driving a diesel again. |

Nice to be appreciated - if you can get everyone else to join in then my head can swell even bigger How does working in IT make you good at events???
It doesn't....but I am good at organising events though, and pulling in resources as required maybe I'm being big headed but it is good to blow your own trumpet sometimes, not that I'm interested though and I wouldn't want the job either ! |
