Thats better, its only obscuring the top now.

And it may be different for non-Journalist people, but nope, it was verbal reasoning for me, you get a passage of writing, and have to select the most appropriate option from under it. It f*cks with you, by giving you answers that may be true, but can't be gathered from the info you ere presented with (i.e. its testing to see whether you read it or just skimmed it and went with what you assumed it said.

I beleive yo0u can practice such tests here:

The Scottish lady who voices the confused.com adverts sounds hot. I wonder if she is.

Take it. You don't want 'flu'. I was off for 3.5 weeks with it last year. Ugh.


i intend to take it. i'm not looking forward to it as i feel like i've had enough injections this year.

When i had the jab last year, though, i ended up catching flu a couple of days later as the fiancé'd had flu so i must have caught it off him. This does make me feel like there's not much point but if i don't have it then they'll probably send me more letters. So if i have the jab, it'll save trees.

They are employing escorts in Farnborough.

Reckon I should go for it, or wait until I have an addiction and intensified sense of desperation first?

Depends on

1) The money
2) How much discretion you get in choosing your clients.

One of the silverfish climbed on my right arm a couple of minutes ago. i shook her or him off and she or he landed on my skirt. Then i shook her or him off my skirt and he was on the floor. i'm used to having silverfish but they've never climbed on me before.

You know Phil always says about job apps 'Keep it short, don't bore them to death'?
Does that extend to supporting statements?
Is 200 - 300 words enough?
They're a good 200 - 300 words.


As in your cover letter?

I think its just 3 paragraphs. One about yourself. One about what you can offer them and one just saying how you look forward to hearing from them and would relish the opportunity to work for them. I suppose that might be in or around the 200-300 word mark. Definitely no more than 3/4 of the page though, excluding your address and greetings etc

No, the supporting statement.
The one where they ask you why you want the position and what you think you could bring to the company. I got it up to 400 which is enough I think and it's sent now anyway.
Fingers crossed.


Oh, an actual job application form? Never filled out one of those. First job I got cos sister worked there. Second job because father worked there. Third job because I'm awesome. It was a CV thing though.

Breast of luck with tit. I hope you keep us abreast of what happens, and they'd be making a real boob by not hiring you.

I would kill for 2 weeks off. Especially if the guy I have to kill is my boss. Less than 2 weeks though and I get 3 days off, then it's the weekend, then a bank holiday Monday, so it's almost a week off altogether. Can not f*ck ing wait
