Well the last few months have been testing to say the least.


Through my restructure at work i have a job[thank you for that] less money in18 months [protected pay] but i dont envisage being there past that so i'm financialy the same [thanks for that]

I Applied in the second round for a management post [could have done it in first round but i had a job in mind......that job was withdrawn at last the minute] ca ser ra.......se ra...............

Tom said something that realy struck a Chord.......we dont get what we think we want.....we get what we are meant too get........something better.....more in line with us...more in line with our values, our beliefs...........

well TOM YOU ARE SPOT ON MY FRIEND................i DID NOT GET THE MANAGEMENT role.....But i have seen another job outside my company and i have appled............and visualise me doing the job......its everything i am .............everything i do.....this job is me...............


DONT BE SCARED FOR ME...................... I SEE ME IN THIS JOB [THE SECRET]


i am greatful for a continued current job with protected pay for a year and a half.....................but i am worth more..................thats the message i send out to the universe today.............................

dmac i see you there too! forget the packers and steelers, my cheering today is for you!!

Yay and yay David!! Keep us posted..I hope it's a perfect fit!

YES!!

and there's also that saying... when one door closes, another opens...

my new job has turned out to be another of life's adventures that I'm appreciative to have... and I know I make a difference...

David... you make a difference... !

I believe that Addy.... When my job at the MOthers Day Out closed it was less than a month that i got the one i'm at now. And i truly believe this is what i should have been doing all along.

Go, David Go!!! And if that job doesn't work out, there are plenty more out there for you. There's a wonderful expression that comes from golf: "Miss 'em, quick." In other words, if you make a bad play, don't sit around and worry about it -- move on to the next one.

Hoping the job works out for you -- but if it doesn't, again, it wasn't meant to be. The reason may be obscure at present, but it will later reveal itself. Tom

Well Tom its a case of 'miss em quick'

80 applicants and i was not shortlisted for interview....so as you say

my friend something else must be out there with my name on it................

Thanks to all for the support..............

David

The perfect fit is out there David...cream always rises to the top. It will happen.

Sorry to hear it wasn't for you, David. Thinking back, I NEVER got a job I applied for. Not once! It was still worth going, however, because somebody was in the room who remembered me and either hired me or referred me to someone else. Strange how that works ... but it does. Hopefully, you'll experience The Grapevine Effect. (Make that Affect if you're bored and want to crank up a grammar dispute).

Tom

David,

Focus on the present.
Be sincere.
Trust Yourself.

Above are the words I wrote on a post-it note (do you have those sticky notes in the UK?) about one half hour ago!

I decided I should post it in my bathroom somewhere... I want to keep reminding myself of the positive.

I recently started a new job... another opportunity for change and adventure.

The support we get here is wonderful, isn't it?
