Gettting another invite is definitely a good sign!

Many thanks dude! Yeah, it just gives me that lift, y'know? These days I can't help but think I'm becoming more and more unemployable due to the prolonged period of not being in work, but, if people are willing to see me, then they obviously want to get to know me!

I hate writing, it's really not my forte, but you don't get your honours if you don't do your diss, it's just an unclassified grade...

EDIT: Obviously I did NOT disclose the fact that I am sh*te at typing in my interview...

My hands are freezing though at the moment, so there's that...

EDIT: Oh man, I got asked, "How did you prepare for your interview?" and I literally couldn't tell them that actually I was having a rehersal in my room with my stuffed animals because that would just sound mental...XD

I could think of worse answers to be fair

I wasn't quite prepared for it (ironically), but I told them I'd read the person specification and job description, and I had been rehersing in my room (so it's not a lie), I just didn't disclose the fact that my mock-interview panel were my stuffed toys! I had some old notes from the previous interview that contained generic questions, so I just used those and tailored them for this one!

Sounds like how I write my essays, taking case studies and reusing them when necessary

I will literally never not do this now, it saved me a lot of hassle!

But in your case too, that's a really good idea! Saves having to trawl through too many books if you already have notes to hand that you can reference!

Oh but PLEASE! I mean I know I should have expected a funny comment from you by default I just wasn't prepared for it!

Oh man! I don't know if I'll ever be able to take any future interview seriously now, even the mock ones. I'll be forever thinking, "right, I need to practice my interview techniques with my stuffed mionions"...

I just typed it and I'm laughing at it! XD

How can you be prepared for an interview if you aren’t for my comments?

You are a disappointing mionion.

I’ll guve you a pay rise if you say that in an interview.

Shhh it’s a deliberate typo, I’m hoping she won’t notice so I don’t have to actually yknow give a pay rise.

Oh my God XD I know, I know, I should have been more prepared, this should be good practice for my next interview! I shall ready my stuffed mionions too, for they are good judges!

I noticed it dude, I want my rise! How can I buy anime and manga for my special dudes here if I don't get that important (and well-deserved and massive) rise?!

*I still want EVA from @Neil.T though...*...:p

Damnit. Fine then you can have a pay rise if you say it in an interview but I want it recorded for validities sake.

Sure it is
I've spent the day combing my work for typos, realised I'd said the same thing twice
Good thing I'm not an editor

Dang. You saw through that then? Combing work for typos just sounds taxing and all round draining soul destroying kind of work.

I knew you'd crumble at the prospect of anime/manga being provided for you by yours truly because I'm such a wonderful High Priestess Mionion!
