Re: We have a new job!!!!!
good evening guys,
BC ive emailed as soon as i saw this post! Really made up for you, so pleased you got good news!!!
We are good, Alan is working for a contractor - earning the same as he was in Dubai but paying the horrible tax man and not getting the sunshine - such as life!
Things are shocking here though, very messy, alot of doom and gloom around. Im still looking around, there is not a great deal and what there is, you are fighting with at least one hundred others! Again it will all come good, hubby is working, bills are being paid and we still have a roof over our head.
Dubai employer is a tosser and wont pay his final payment owed which equals £5,000, bit of a b!tch to swallow but nothing we can do about it. It was going to pay off the credit card. Bank is charging massive fees on the missed payment (which resulted due to no money being in the account due to lack of payment from Dubai employer!) not sure how long they will continue to charge us but i suppose it has to stop at some point.
The saying there is no place like home - very much true, at least here i feel safe!
good luck Dawarrior - hope it all comes together for you!

Re: We have a new job!!!!!
Lucky? Why? He got the position that his skills and experience warranted. There are too many quarter wit newbies flooding the job market here recently. People such as your bloke (albeit the fact he supports Celtic) should be getting good positions, while the rifraff crawl back under the stone they came from.
what he said. and well done, glad to hear about the job, he has way too much reg exp to be written off lightly
