I love wool, fabric, buttons, fibres, making stuff, sewing... anything crafty....
So this job offer.......
be stupid to turn it down wouldn't I...
so at 6 pm went for a formal interview, offered job....accepted job.
That means in the last four years I have been 'head hunted' (sounds impressive!!) twice!
Maybe I am not so rubbish after all!!

And as long as H.H agree, I should be able to do both jobs, as someone said, the best of both worlds.
Now will have to cut out eating rubbish, loose a bit of flab, find something decent to wear (smart!!) and stop hiding away!
But....... Just think of all that fabric to touch and look at!!!!
Heaven.
Turns out, on the 1st of August they brought the business and Megan asked Tom (who happens to be the Chairman of the management committee at work) if he thought I would be interested in working for them. He said he couldn't ask as it would be a conflict of interest, so what luck that I bumped into them yesterday, on my Birthday. Now I keep thinking about all I DON'T know about fabric, boy have I got some homework to do!!!
I read your last post earlier and didn't have time to comment then, but I was going to say - DO BOTH if at all possible. So that's such great news. And having this opportunity will hopefully force you into some of the changes you mention, and then you will start to believe in yourself even more! And there's all that fabric too. Well done and I do wish you all the best as you go forward - when do you start? It's very exciting. xx
ReplyDeleteThis is so exciting, I am really pleased for you. It's about time you got some really good news coming your way, you deserve it!

CONGRATULATIONS! Wow, I am sooooo jealous! If there is a down side to working in a fabric shop, it'll be that you won't be bringing much in the way of wages home, because you'll be spending it all in the shop!
ReplyDeleteWishing you well with your new job.
love Fi x
Congratulations! This is a dream for a lot of us, so I'm quite envious now. I hope you can restrain yourself working there and not buy everything you see! You lucky, lucky girl.

A belated birthday present?!? Well deserved. You will be great at this job. I can't wait to see what projects you come up with, with all that inspiration to draw on.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. It sounds like a perfect situation for you. Dust off your confidence (what shelf did you stash it on anyway?) and wear it with pride.
ReplyDeleteYour flower pin is just beautiful. So happy for you:)

ReplyDeleteHello PC,
ReplyDeleteThought I'd return the compliment and tag along awhile if you don't mind, oh by the way 'musings of murphyfish' is where I ponder mostly, hopefully there'll be something there to keep you amused.
Bets regards,
John
Wow!! Well done you - it sounds like a very dangerous place to work though!!!
