Well I had a bit of bad news and a bit of good news this week and both were delivered by the same person-my Boss!!!

As some of you may be aware I had a bit of a bad time of it last year as far as work goes and was made redundant twice in three months. Then last June I got the job I'm doing now as maternity cover for a year. Well the MD called me into the Board room and said that he had heard from the girl who I was covering for and that she had decide to come back early and was starting back on 12th April. I was gutted as I feel I've really settled in and was part of the team :cry::cry: . Then he told me that I had settled in really well and they wanted to keep me on!! :D:D:D

So as you can imagine one very happy Kate x

    Well done, at least you get to stay on.

    He is probably wondering if this girl who went on maternity leave will be able to cope. If she has decided to come back too early, it's a terrible wrench to leave little one.

    So now, it's like, "show him what you are made of" go to it.
    good luck
