    Question - be gentle I am ill...

    Had an interview last week, much to my reluctance - I had taken lots of cough mixture and was wearing the wrong shoes, so it wasn't going to go well. Tried to delay until this week, when I might feel better.

    It took place in the company cafe - which I never enjoy - saw loads of people I know. Anyway, Programme Mgr, male, was a complete c*ck and boasted of how aggressive he could be and how someone would need to be able to cope with that. The woman with him seemed nice, and sort of normal.

    Anyways, I thought it was a big waste of time and that the c*ck was not someone I would want to work with. Emailed a friend of mine at the company she seemed to think c*ck was going to be gotten rid of soon...

    Got call from agency today, they say I am in the frame and c*ck and co are going to interview someone else this week. ho hum.

    Question is, I don't really want the role but could do with the money, if I was offered, is it worth taking it and hoping c*ck gets the boot, because I hate him already.

        Wait until you land it first!! I would say dont take it. You need to be happy all round - not just the money - and there is no guarantee that noddy will go. Not worth it!

          Not again!

          You don't seem to get on well with men, do you love?
          Maybe you should try and be nice to them, that might work occasionally.

                Lu: Are you a man?
                DJ: Yes. Unlike you, not gender-confused.

                    How much do you need the money and are you up for any other roles?

                    That could influence your decision.
