come on, thats not a very responsible attitude seeker

BecauseImWorthIt · 17/01/2008 12:21

Still no book

Mazzystarr - did you post it 1st or 2nd class?

jofeb04 · 17/01/2008 13:25

Hiya,
SO sorry I haven't been on here for a few days, my internat connection is a bit off at the moment

I've received my book (to however sent it to Gwent).

Will be reading it this weekend I hope!

leoleo · 17/01/2008 16:17

Was thinking no need for Vacua to change book is there? I've stopped reading the one I recieved.. Or should I start again?
How many people in our circle disappeared and reappeared in the last day or so!!

Stacey I hope your ok x x

thegrowlygus · 17/01/2008 16:50

Leoleo - new book all packaged up and ready to go. Will post tomorrow. Had the job interview today - was disasterous. Not quite as bad as the one in Trainspotting but it did cross my mind half way through "do you actually want this job, because you seem to be talking them out of employing you".

Trying to tell myself I don't really mind - just a bit gutted that I think I have left them with the impression that I am an arse!

Ah well. Least I have a good book to read.

Stacey - hope you are OK. Puts my piddling job problems in perspective.

leoleo · 17/01/2008 19:23

Since having DS i have found that I tend to tell people while I would be unemployable because I don't want to make promises I can't be bothered to try and live up to.. So I wouldn't worry.
I forgot to take your book with me to work so I'll try to post by Saturday. What are they donating? Put it on our review thread so it doesn't spoil anything but I have to know.
Was it a change of job or a return back to paid employment?

thegrowlygus · 17/01/2008 21:47

Return back to work after mat leave. New work as was locuming before so want something more regular now. But jobs are hard to come by and a lot of competition at the moment so a tough market. Something will come up hopefully.

And no - I won't tell you what they are donating - you will get the book eventually! Vacua has sent it on!

thegrowlygus · 17/01/2008 21:48

In fact - if you want you can keep it. Don't worry about sending it back to me. Read it and pass it on randomly! I donate the book to the greater reading population!!

leoleo · 17/01/2008 22:22

thanks. I changed my book in the end.. Feel much happier.
Am I being dim are you a gp?

thegrowlygus · 17/01/2008 22:32

You are not being dim. I am a gp. Shhh. No one knows.

leoleo · 17/01/2008 22:37

Well I am suprised GP's have interviews.. Anyway can i ask you about my knee!

thegrowlygus · 17/01/2008 22:49

Depends which one. I only do left knees. And right eyes. I am very specialised.

thegrowlygus · 17/01/2008 22:51

As for interviews - oh yes - 5 years ago I virtually walked into a job. Now - 60+ applicants for each one. Quite disheartening as I have all the post-grad stuff and (I think) I am quite a good GP (patients and other staff tell me so anyway!) but still can't get a job

leoleo · 17/01/2008 23:05

That's cr@p. I hate to say it so don't shoot me - something will come up x

BecauseImWorthIt · 18/01/2008 13:07

STILL NO BOOK!!!

Is anyone listening?

Please tell me it will arrive tomorrow?!

sophiewd · 18/01/2008 13:44

I have no bookj as well but my IsThhereAnybodyOutThere has chickenpox in her house.will get worried on Monday.

thegrowlygus · 18/01/2008 13:57

leoleo - new book winging its way to you as I type! Will start new thread for it. If I mess the initals up on this one I will be amazed at my own rubbish-ness.

thegrowlygus · 18/01/2008 14:01

Hey - I am first in the new "MN book swap gorups" section! I have left a thread there about the new book I have sent.

sophiewd · 18/01/2008 14:54

We have a whole topic dedicated to the quiche club, how wobderful.

leoleo · 19/01/2008 09:21

Hey GG - I thought I'd read a little bit more before I sent the book back and now I can't put it down!! I have it in my bag now to try and read some at lunch. I was up through the night and was also reading then! Thanks

ellceeell · 19/01/2008 10:40

Hey leoleo - I got your second book, thanks. Is MamaG okay about that one being circulated now? I read the first one - not my usual sort of book, but surprisingly (to me ) gripping !

leoleo · 19/01/2008 11:01

Can you chose which one to send on and I'll send a stamped addressed evelope for the other. Do you mind. I was having nightmares that people would hate the first..

BecauseImWorthIt · 19/01/2008 12:32

Sigh. I still haven't got my book.

Do you think it's now lost in the post?

Or was it coming from Australia?!
