Hi all, my day was going well until I received an email from HR saying that I did not get through the application process for a job in Hastings as I did not complete the online test. They did NOT send it to me. Anyone got any ideas, I tried accessing the vacancy again but it is no longer on the job site.
The job was right up my street (very big pun intended there) and I am disappointed. I have rechecked emails and deleted just in case I did that by accident.
Any of you got a contact address or phone number as I can't find one anywhere?
Thanks
Sad of Hastings

Slightly better than yesterday, but only just. Going through a revision and things are very badly organised. :roll:

It was a good morning for the union bashers at work.
Felt castrated most of the day.
A doorbell played Chattanooga choo choo which brought a smile to my face ....but then I felt castrated again.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Wanted: An outdoor job with an achievable workload, where management acknowledge how much can be achieved daily changes with the workload. Less stress would be nice too. :cuppa

Saw a guy today using his jumper as a dog lead.
One sleeve tied around the dog's collar and him holding the other sleeve.

Don't be too disheartened Sharon, there will be more opportunities. Remain on the lookout, you'll be messed about again for sure, but keep at it.

Walked into about 10 spiders webs!!!

I hate it! Esp when they go into your face, people watching must think what the hell is wrong with me ,when I get in a fluster and try and brush them off ,and panic 'wheres the bloody spider gone!?'
