You need to try harder. I can embarrass mine soooo easily.

Woohoooo! It's a start! They only guarantee 6 hours a week, but frankly that is better than $5.13 a fortnight that centrestink pay. Mind you, I think the work will physically kill me - literally, but that is a problem to worry about next week

Thanks again, for all the kind wishes! Keep your fingers crossed though and if I suddenly stop posting you'll know it was all too much
Congrats!!!!! You must be over the moon, I know its only a few hours but like you've said its a start

Thanks again to everyone for all the positive vibes and good wishes that have been sent. I genuinely believe that all this karma and good vibes made a real difference to the outcome - but then I am not noted for my sanity

I'm absolutely shattered tonight and I would only be just about due to start work on a weeknight - I'm an early to bed, early to rise sort of person too, this job really is totally alien to me. But it's a job and it's mine!

eddie, I'm sending a heap of karma in your direction and lots of positive thinking .... these are the vibes winging westwards --->> ~~~~~~~~

at the son of a bitch ... that makes me giggle everytime someone shortens the nick to SOB, it's one of life's small pleasures for me Little things and little minds, I know!
