Also, another problem, I'm trying to upvote the messages I've posted and having no luck.
Yes, I'm kidding.
I'm dropping the whole spammy thing.
Sorry to all. Must've been confused. Trying to catch the perpetrators and they have not have been.

I figured someone was really marking my messages as Spam and wasn't going to complain, but then I saw that every message in lounge was being marked that way I wanted to bring it to someone's attention.
So are we all just being apathetic today? Do we just ignore this?

Saw the tour de France go through our village yesterday, have to say, it is a massive disappointment; 60 guys in lycra in a pack that passes in about 4 seconds isn't much of a spectacle. At least the ensuing thunderstorm made up for it! And the today its cold, grey, and windy as hell! Should have stayed in Devon!

You could grab a bag of popcorn and go down and spectate the Palestinian/Isreal counter protests - I hear those last for days.

Why am I getting these jobs via E-mail, have I signed up for something or...
Also why do I get Burton suits phoning me telling me that in their view I'm not really selling myself properly(  ), while trying to find out about the company I work(ed) for... I hate job hunting...

Where are you job hunting? Bristol?

Yes, but also in the South West in general. I'm starting to think that some of these recruitment agency use some very strange software!
I can't cook, I can burn water! I think its because I applied to some Vodaphone roles...but I mean come on

If you apply for roles with Orange, you will get Scotland job offers - that counts as one of your five a day!

Have they told you when you finish (and how much you get) yet?
But yeah, job hunting is a true PITA - what annoyed me was the total absence of feedback you got: I've gone out of my way to send you a personalised cover letter explaining in Executive Summary why I'd be perfect, and you can't manage 30 seconds so say "No thanks, we wanted someone cheaper"?

13th Aug I'm out the door, I won't get all my redundancy in one go (finance problems...). I just would like to able to get to the companies directly rather go through my CV with Recruitment Specialists (who basically want to rewrite my CV)

Have they specified (in writing) when you will get what?
