Not too bad thanks dude. Mother Nature decided to "knock" early (the cow), so I've been feeling groggy for much of the day. Went out for a walk earlier though to take my mind off it, it was nice ^^

Also, I had an email from the NHS inviting me for an interview on 14th March. It's for a position in the Health Records department, and I have a bit of experience in handling and filing records, however, I have been interviewed for this position in the past, and despite coming from the interview feeling positive, I didn't get the job :(

Ah well, it's a positive step nonetheless, all I can do is my best!

How are you? :)

Mine is all over the place too - That happens when you get old. I need a butterfly net sometimes...

I laughed! My mind's always been all over the place, I...I have no excuse! It's just all downhill from here!

It is. It's like "stick or twist?" No need to go in with any preconceptions or anything now. Just... lay it out for them, I guess. You already mentioned your duvet-selling technique, so... roll out that smile of yours! 😁

It's true, hopefully I can charm them with my knowledge of the colours of the files according to their number...since I still remember it from last time I worked in the NHS XD

Otherwise, I'll just smile and nod!

I'll definitely do my best, thanks so much, the support means alot! :)

You say it with a laugh, but that's already one thing you know that other candidates probably won't!

I see you are a man of great taste in women. The trick is not to stsrr them in the eyes for too long, even easier with their head removed

I don't know, dude, I kinda like eyes and eye contact! It's lack of eye contact that's the death knell.

Well, I can only hope it's an advantage I have, I mean there may be candidates that are being interviewed internally as well, but, it's something to arm myself with if it's needed ^^

But Neil, we don't even have eyes *points to our avatars* XD You're right though, eyes are the windows to the soul, and it's always polite in any situation to make and maintain eye contact. It can be hard at first, but once you over come the shyness, it's not so bad...
 
Neil.T said:
I'm actually okay in that regard. I actually meant lack of eye contact from the other person as a signal that they have no interest in engaging with you!

You're right about our avatar pics!

Feeding time now. Back later. 🙂

Ah, gotcha! Yeah, I'm much better these days at maintaining eye contact, but I do know what you mean. I can be forgiving if I know the other person is shy or anxious (been there), but when it's just out of rudeness...

ENJOY YOUR FOOD!

1. I have never overcome that shyness
2. We do not have souls. We are simply lumps of meat that have convinced ourselves that we can think

I get what you mean, it took me AGES to overcome ANY kind of shyness, but you can do it!

And, I do believe you have a soul (deep, deep down ;). You are more than a lump of meat, you amuse me ^^
