I can see you!!!

Why don't you just stay on until it is time for you to leave...no time to get nervous then.

The down side is that you could and up going in your slippers.

Good luck

Ok - I'm ready to go. They have phoned me up to check I am still comming, didn't think I was nervouse but now I am. Squeezed into a suit I couldn't even do up 6 weeks ago and I have even got the dog in!

I've got my boots ready, my bag ready and my resume ready - and now I'm ready early!

The job is at the New Eddie Bauer store that's opening...soon I guess? So not exactly high powered and I'm so not into fashion it's daft, seemed like a good idea when I applied

Right, I'm Off, thanks for the shove and best wishes - be back soon

Guess i just missed you - oh, there you are just going out the door

So, suppose i think you will read this on your return .... How did it go? sit down, grab a cuppa ( did not say a cuppa what!! ) and tell us all about it.

Hope it went well

How did it go?? I think, on the whole, that putting the dog into the suit as well was a mistake. Was that just to prove you have lost weight??

take care

Well........I'm back!

I was over dressed in my suit (when I asked what I'd be expected to wear she said not as dressy as you have on).

The interview went well - usual questions, why did you leave the UK? what do you like about here? Nothing much about previous work experience apart from do you have any customer service skills.

I got a, Well it's going to be lovely working with you, I shall just check your references out and give you a call on Thursday, so I guess it's a

I gave her a copy of the reference my lask Uk employer did for me - it made her cry

The wages seem to be fair considering it's shop work and there seems to be a lot of incentives, so if I get a positive phone call on Thursday, I'll be starting work at the end of November!
