I am looking for a new role since I won't be renewing my contract.
I ticked every boxes of the JD but was not invited for an interview. I am feeling quite demotivated at the moment but I know it is part and parcel of job hunting. I feel like bleeping my face with sweets and chocolate now

Ask them why, feedback isn’t easy but it could be they have internals or something else, then you’ll know, not a lot of candidates ask for feedback at this stage and at least if you ask you’ll know

Hey Lola, yes I did, the standard response 'we have decided to move forward with a candidate whose experiences better meet our needs for this particular role'
I think part of it is my fault for investing so much of my hope in it, because I really thought I will be invited since the industry and the role is quite specialised. Anyway, onwards and upwards.. :)

More woe with the recycling bin which wasn't collected this morning, it's been out for a week now, down my road there is a line of wheelie bins
with clear plastic bags. It;s a real mess, as I mentioned in the last whinge, the workers are using new vehicles and are having problems with the
new technology so the council claim. There is also a calendar change, we are switching, council really fucked this up.

When the shops have decided to close their customer toilets , due to the pandemic, but still have the sign up. They could stick some card over the sign so people know they aren't available .

People who reply to looking for recommendations.. .
9/10 they are full of people recommending their daughters cupcake business, their neices balloon business, Auntie Sharons cleaning business.
Have they actually used these businesses? Are they speaking from experience? Rarely . . Just trying to blag so n so a bit of work . .
🤣

Thank you and please. 3 little words. Sorry to say but manners have gone. Like holding the door open, doesn't matter make or female, just polite.
BTW you did something nice remember that. But yeah but nice to get something back, even 2 little words.

That I'm currently number 46 in the queue for the doctors. 🙄 surely there's an easier way to book appointments than everyone ringing at 8am that day

Over-friendly emails from companies that use my name in the subject line, eg, "Mary, we haven't heard from you in a long time."

And some of them make you jump through hoops to unsubscribe.

People who cycle on the narrowest part of the pavement. As I was here first, goodness knows where I'm expected to go?

For me , if I hold the door open, even a smile, or a nod of the head, just some acknowledgement will do. But some people are just too ignorant.

The smell of pork almost knocks me sick for some reason. I don’t know why, it just smells awful to my nose. My partner loves pork so when he’s cooking it in the house I’m like 🤢
