Oh! Get in! Well done, you.

I'm not sure fundraising in Scotland is different. How would it be? It sounds all very "that London".

Also I've been trying to guess the name change and I knew I knew who you were but couldn't put my finger on it. Hello!

Thats amazing, Daire! Well done!

I toyed vaguely with retraining but anything I fancy takes too long and would mean living in a cardboard box as there's only my wage coming in.

This is my new mantra too. Well done!

Daire, I wondered if you were busy doing your course, you've been quiet. Fantastic news, well done!

Well done Daire.

Nothing to report here as I've not bothered my arse but at least we have a final date for our Glasgow office closing down so I have half a year yet to try and find something before my hand is forced.

Well done, Daire. That sounds pretty much life-changing.

And good luck to the job-hunters - six months sounds plenty of time to find something new.

That's brilliant Daire, well done you! I like your attitude :))
Hello Hannie, I think I'm quite easy to work out :))

I eventually spoke to the recruiter and told her at I thought. She agreed that this woman was possibly a bit intimidated or whatever. She is due to speak to the CEO next week. I've pretty much decided I'm not going for it but will be interested in his feedback. It's disappointing as its one of the only roles I've seen paying the salary I want and which matches my experience so well but I think she'd do my head in. I've also discovered that before she arrived there she'd worked at one charity for 20 years. No shame in that but she certainly didn't paint herself as someone with such a limited background.
