I had a second-round interview yesterday, I think we got on really well, the job seemed interesting (and almost fun! ) and she said she'd call me tomorrow.

Well it is tomorrow! So call me! Now! And tell me I've got it, obviously.

It's mostly going to be database stuff (but I am geeky and though that looked fun) - there would be me and this other girl analysing things in an office with about 8 techy guys. There was lots of 'I'm making tea, who wants some' while I was there yesterday morning.

Are you looking at your phone every 5 minutes?

I bet when it rings your heart will start racing

I had a call from the recruiter saying I had got my dream job 10 minutes prior to going in and having a ovarian cyst removed (sneakily had my mobile phone under the bed covers as I was desperate to know). Went into the operating theatre with a huuuuge smile on my face

Sounds GREAT! will keep me fingers crossed for you.. sounds like a lovely environment and that makes a massive difference.. GOOD LUCK!

StealthPolarBear · 26/06/2009 12:39

Oooh good luck, ikwym about waiting for the phone to ring
Also, it sounds as though we have very similar jobs!

StealthPolarBear · 26/06/2009 12:40

Mmm, meatball subway, scoffed in about 5 mins flat.

Yesterday was really nice, I think it was a test of how we would get on more than anything (so if I get a no I will be very ) and how I would manage doing new stuff that I hadn't done before.

Yes I am looking every 5 minutes - I have ti on vibrate so it won't make a loud noise but I'm sure I will hear it anyway so don't really know why I keep looking.

Don't you have the urge to phone them TA?

Metella · 26/06/2009 13:01

StealthPolarBear · 26/06/2009 13:01

Nooooo, mustn't phone them! That would be wrong.

I will try my hardest to have news before your meeting Stealth

That's all I can do

Love the phone-sneaking GetOrf.
