Hi all

Had a phone call this afternoon - I don't have a job as he has taken on too many staff.

Am very upset.

    So sorry to hear this Pink. Will they keep you on a reserve list in case it doesn't work out for another applicant?

    The job market is very tough at the moment, my OH took almost 2 yrs to find a job but he did get there in the end.

    Try to have a good cry and then put it behind you.

    All the best to you Pink

    I'm sorry too, Pink. It's so frustrating when you're all excited about something and then it just doesn't happen.

    Hope you'll have better luck soon,

    I'm sorry, no wonder you feel gutted. I know its a hard time to be looking for a job. It's the disappointment that really makes you feel rotten, but hope something will turn up before too long.
    Lots of love, Suexxxx

    Oh no pink that's so annoying. I think you can ask for compensation tho as they had effectively taken you on.

    Don't get too upset, remember what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I know that would mean we are all superwoman/man but I reckon we come close anyway.

    Hugs hun.

    I'm not sure I would want to work for someone who can't count. I think you need a proper explanation, that sounds like a very feeble excuse for not employing you. DD

    I'm sorry Pink. This is awful news especially as you have signed a contract and I wonder if there is some comeback.
