I've done it again!!!!!!!!!.............On Monday the 6th April we had 3 jobs between us!!!. I'd accepted the verbal job offer from the Common Wealth Bank on the Friday & on the Monday I got a phone call from the recruitment consultant telling me that McQuarie Bank also wanted to offer me a position (originally advertised as a full time temp contract on $42,000), however they wanted to offer me a permanent contract immediately between $43,000 to $45,000!!!! but it would be full time 5 days a week in the City!. So I thanked them very much however I wanted Part-time..... so off they went again and came back & offered me part-time 4 days a week!!!! WOW 2 jobs at once (so fingers I must of done good on my tests!!, so over them though!), just like buses!!!!. I had a good think about it but decided to go with my original decision, as the Commonwealth is only 10 mins away, so that was that..1 job down. That same day my now boss from the Commonwealth Bank wanted me to go into the Branch to meet everyone before I started so off I trotted at 2.30pm to meet my new work colleagues......Megan stayed with Pat. During my time there which was an hour & a half!!!! (thought I would only be 10 mins), my phone kept ringing, but I could'nt answer it as it looked rude!!!. So as soon as I left the Bank I looked at my phone & I could see that Ian had called me so I rang him straight away & rang Pat to say sorry I had been so long. Then off I went to pick Ian up from Grant & Anitas has he had been working...we then went back home to Pats. Now as soon as we go in Pats house (cos it's in the sticks abit) we have no signal on our phones, unless it's in the Laundry room & then we can't hear it anyway as it's too far away!!!. So there was no further activity on my phone!. The next day would you believe my phone had run out of battery & for some reason I did'nt charge it!. The following day Ian decided to ring his so called future employer to see if they had got the contracts through yet........and he responded with I phoned you on Monday & left a message on your wifes phone, but as you did'nt get back to me I have had to take someone else on as the job starts on Tuesday!!!!!!!???????? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!. So I checked my phone straight away & he had phoned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Gutted!!!!, but as we did'nt have any signal in the house my phone never rang back to tell me. He apparantly has some more contracts starting in a few weeks but we won't hold our breath!!!. So that is that!. Ian however is still working with Grant on a house renovation where he has come across Huntsman Spiders the size of his hands, possums & Daddy Possums... I'll let you tell you about that on another post!!!.
Thats life hey!, you win some you loose some...so that leaves us with 1 job!!!!!!
But we're still smiling!
