That's not even from looking in it, that's from some other radgee picking the mirror up and smashing it over your face because you may have happened to look at 'them' :))

Yes, for sure.
But never give them the answer immediately. Make them work for it. Like, when you shake their hands, give them subtle hints of the weather. Perhaps have one sleeve drip water on their hands. Makes it clear to them that you really want the work, and that you are willing to work for it. And always leave a puddle where you're standing. Can't go wrong with puddles, I always say!
I do leave puddles behind me, but perhaps that is to do with my age !

Every time I read that the oldest person in the world has died, I have to do a quick check to see it isn't ME..........
Been there 10.5 years, but 2/3 of the company has just been sold off and the last 1/3 has to limit their spending, so a fulltime IT guy is too much. Bugger.
...and right before Christmas. It's a real classic, innit?
Terrible. I did send two applications before New Year but haven't heard anything back yet.
Also, paradoxically, I've been so busy at work since New Year that I haven't had time to look at jobs. I did finally find time yesterday though, so I now have 5 new job possibilities I have to reread and see if I can apply for them.
Well here the most depressing day of the year, dubbed 'Blue Monday' was followed by one of those 'company restructuring' presentations on Tueday.

It is the rejections that make it harder to apply, all of that work and time and often not even a reply, they don't realise that it often makes people want to stop applying.
A job I was once at, the secretary used to shread any job aplications that she thought might be any good, so that her friends had a better chance of landing the job.

I don't go out of my way to get people in trouble at work, infact I'm all about giving people chances, but I'd have reported her for doing that, that's a really crappy thing to do.

So does that mean your application wasn't very good? :))

When I worked at Dudley MBC umpteen times I saw HR, without looking at any, take 90% of the applications and put them straight into the recycling bin. To be fair when 1,000+ applications come through and there's two people to look at them you can kinda understand it.
Internal interviews for any kind of management position were pointless as it had ALWAYS already been decided who was going to get the job.
I should not criticise, I was interviewing once and I wanted to give a girl the job, just because she was cute and had a haircut like a Pixie, perfect qualifications in my book !

It's probably for the best...
I'd pay no money to play that game. But I'd watch over a friend's shoulder while he's struggling with the controls.
Quite addictive too :))
Mr. Bellend can attest to that I'spose.

How's the job search going?

They couldn't pay me enough to go back there.
