15th August 2007...
Tonight.. well temporarily... will be my last diary entry... at the moment I need to take the selfish approach... as I need to regain my inner strength to carry on to help others....
Initionaly I first thought that this website would help me to download my own feelings.. but now that is debatable... and yes... I have always and still am here to help those that are struggling....
To me... there was always a need for a personalised website... and that I have provided... and I hope that I have helped... others towards the journey of understanding....
You can find my selfish approach in greater detail on the page called Sorry but I need some time out.
But as of now... I am struggling myself... big time...
But regardless... I am always with you... if not in body... but in soul...
Take care xx
18th August 2007...
Hey, it,s only me... just thought that I would pop back online to let folks know that my life is starting to take on a level of positivity again... yeha!!!!!
Today I went for my very first job interview since being pensioned off from Tesco... and I got the job.... at the moment I do not have a definite start date... but it should be within the next two weeks... to be honest... at the moment I feel as if a big heavy financial weight has been lifted from my mind... but the reality of the continuation of the job itself is daunting... but hey... never say never!!!!
My first barrier today... after attending the recruitment day... was the mere fact that I had been asked to fill in an application form ~GULP~ to be honest I struggled... I took longer than most to complete the required form... made loads of spelling mistakes.. and left sections uncompleted... but the recruits were great... they finished the required fields for me... and at that point.. I was thinking... errmm.. "this is not looking to good" but I sat and waited on an interview regardless... what did I have to lose??? nothing..
I was then shouted into the interview room... the girl that interviewed me was great... she was easy to get on with... and during the course of the interview we had a bit of a laugh... but the main aim of the interview itself... was asking how I would deal with numerous situations regarding the general public... and for me.. to use the inbuilt skills that I have... to sell myself to the company.. so to speak.. but seeing as I am me... I managed lol... after all that is one thing that I posses.. is the gift of the gab.... (well sometimes) but this job should be easier as there is no physical requirements... as it is based within a call centre... and in my experience... of speaking on the phone... which I have plenty of... I should be able to manage... as my telephone rings 24/7.. lol
I just remembered earlier... that after registering with http://www.shaw-trust.org.uk last week... I am now entitled to a £200 job start grant.... and after I notify them of my new employment position... I will be entitled to in-work support...
Hey, and the best thing about being employed again.. is the factor of that no longer will I ever have to listen to folks hilarities... through jest.. as to me being a pensioner at 41... hahaha!! as now I will lose my Tesco pension... ~phew~ but in saying that... they still owe me a months money.... better than nothing.. ehh!!!!!
