Figured I need to get some long standing issues sorted out - and oh boy, did he sort them out - the crunching noise in my head was awful:(

Got some good tips re. what other info CO's might request today - 12 months worth of wage slips, last P60 etc and how to fill out/label up the meds forms -see Clara W's posts today on the 138 thread - might help you??

yeah they've asked for further proof on work etc for the last 18 months managed to find 98% of wage slips for that period know the rest must be somewhere packed in a box no doubt from when I moved

I have a busy day every day! Sometimes wonder how I find time to work.

Anyway I've now decided to look at 457 visa options seeing as I'm too crap to get a 50 point assessment off vetassess and too old to qualify with a 40. Any on got any good tips on finding a dumbwit to give me a job?

:lol:

I'm an Assistant Director for a Local Authority. My background is in quality management, policy and planning. I also have procurement and tendering experience, performance management guru, best tea maker in the north west. I currently manage a range of front line delivery services that include drug treatment, crime reduction, street cleansing, highway repairs as well as some research, consultation and community development functions.

I also crochet, ride horses, drive a wagon and occasionally go out drinking. :thumbsup:

Funny that - Vetassess seemed more intersted in the tea making and horse riding too, rather than all the other stuff I can do. :mad:
