    I'm hoping the Scope place will still let me do some of the work experience. This course is only 3 weeks, 3 days a week 9.30 - 12.30. I can easily work in the charity shop as well?

    The work experience placement is for 8 weeks.

    It depends at what time you start working at the charity shop. But I think charity shops are quite reasonable when dealing with work days/hours and whatnot.

    I've got an interview for it on Tuesday morning anyway, so I'm going to go along and explain I want to do the course as well as the unpaid work. Hopefully they'll let me.

    Well you're not turning up pissed and stoned which puts you above 99% of the people there anyway. For me, well I'm both but then again I'm not job hunting.

    Heh, I've got 2 interviews tomorrow and both are final. Both It, one is sales and the other one is helpdesk advisor (The Richmond one I've been telling about) Sure hope they don't accept me for the sales one.

    Internal. So no, they weren't allowed to be.

    I see. Mine are from telephone companies, so I don't know if they will be or Valium calm. But I'm giving solutions to a software, rather than hardware.

    They should be OK. I worked (briefly) for a company which had external clients and never had any issues. The company was dull as fuck though as it didn't have the drug culture the bank did, and not even another smoker! So I went back to the bank.

    Fuck that, this one has Harold and Lou. They'd already added the queer jazz part by this stage though.

    Oh Shattered Memories? That's a pretty good remake of a classic.
