If you pray, please do....if you don't, please keep your fingers crossed for me for the next fortnight.... aw, c'mon - I said PLEASE!! Didn't get the chance to drop here last night, but yesterday I went for an interview. Y'know those sad would-be photographers that go around the stores / malls cajoling parents into having pictures taken of their little ones, then try talking them into buying a whole set of the damn photo's for 60? ($100?) Well, I went for that job.... Ok, I know, dragging kit around etc etc low esteem, etc etc, but hey - it's photography, yeah? and it's experience, yeah? All I need now is a multitude of luck. The interview went well, I thought, me and the young lady(mmm!) had a nice rapport going, and my answers seemed good to me - even some of my varied history got utilised well in the conversation. IMO, only someone with more experience could get the job over me, but we'll have to see.... there were quite a few people going for it. If I have by some curious twist of fate managed to get somewhere I'll hear in a fortnight. If not I just won't hear anything.... Wish me luck, guys...... (".) p.s. The brake servo went on the car on the way home, so hopefully that was the manifestation of my bad luck!! lol...

Maybe it will be photographing pets! Now that would be really neat. Much better than sticky two year olds. In any case, good luck to you.

Got everything crossed for you, Jordy! (And I don't even want to say how many of those packages I bought when my daughter was a sticky 2 year old, LOL!)

Sexy??? oh no...it's too much, I'm laughing too much to do this reply any justice!!

I'm sure it will come your way. Even if you werent qualified (which you of course are), your personality would get you through. And if not, you can always contact "cat amaris". In fact, doing that may be even more exciting than the job!

CAT!?! For gawds sake, he's a decendant of a flipping convict! At least my descendants had an honest job!!! lol (btw, looks like you're getting a reputation already....snigger) THANKS, GUYS - Your wishes are really appreciated, and I do thank you all for your support. I've had both positive and negative feedback about this decision, but at the end of the day see more pro's than cons, comparing it to my current position.... not least of all I'll get to see my kids, which I currently get only 1 hr in the morning during the week at the moment, coz of my naff shift. Even if I take the job and hate it, that'll make it worthwhile....and hey - if I don't like it, I'll move on! Anyways, as I say, that's all circumspect at the moment, the decision isn't mine to make......I can only wait & see. Once again, thanks everyone! Mike. (",)
