    Try to get the one you want. You will not be happy otherwise. We spend way too much of our life at work, so you better find something that you like doing. It hasn't taken me all that long to figure it out. Now I have to figure out what it is that makes me happy.

    Well the final result is in and.... I was rejected for the receptionist job and didnt even get a look in in the Glasgow job. On top of all that my current employer has found someone to replace me. Tomorrow is my last day of paid employment.

    Crap.

    Oh well, poll has served purpose. Please close thread Mr Moderator.
