Mrs TG's place have asked me back. No idea how long for. But several weeks hopefully. A couple of chunky pay packets on the run up to Xmas at  least.

Job applications continue apace.

Excellent news well done. ;D

I couldn't ask for better friends. I could ask for more NORMAL friends, but not better ones.

Another NHS interview on Monday (#5).

Bit odd this. I applied weeks ago and got the 'eff off four eyes, you are too ugly to be shortlisted' email.

NHS HR bint phoned me this morning saying loads had 'dropped out' and other shite.

The 'panel' really want to see me.  cloud9:

Yeah.

I shall give it my best shot as ever.

I am officially employed now having handed in my P45 etc. The fact it may last only a few weeks is immaterial. My new boss says she ( eyes:) will be a reference and says my new found 'clinical' experience should help.

 rubschin:

Anywho, feck that. With my first pay packet in a year I shall purchase 'Wii Sports Resort'.

Have I already said that?

I shall also take Mrs TG out for a slap up feed.

I am also considering 'Assassins Creed 2' for the PS3. Nice to be in position to consider!

You have the right of it there.

I had to leave work today to register at an agency who seem to think I am lovely.

Another company I applied to emailed me demanding to know how much I earned in my previous role. I refused to tell them as it was of no consequence and the salary they are offering is adequate. Take me or leave me.

Its been said on here, by yourself and others that being employed, albeit on a temp contract, may put me in a stronger position.

I feel something may break soon.

Well, the practical test at todays NHS interview was a typing test. No suprise there as it said so on the interview invite.

What it didn't say was that it was a feckin Audio Typing test!  point:

Yes, well, thinking about it I suppose most Doctors do tend to dictate into little machines as they work and someone has to transcribe their murmurings but it is a specialised skill and probably requires a trained knowledge of medical terminology (at least my eldest daughter who is a trained medical sec tells me that is the case). Seems a bit unfair not to tell you in advance.

I did surprisingly well I thought.

Not an essential requirement for the job anyway. They were more interested in the fact than in between applying and the actual interview I have started work within the NHS.

I can now put  'Audio typing within an NHS administration environment' on my CV.  lol:

Never mind. Next!
