I'm feeling a little delicate this morning, it was someone's leaving do at work last night so a few drinks were consumed, it was a good night though!
I had to go in for my feedback for not getting the job yesterday, I had done better than I thought but I also was told the Bulls...t I was expecting, some people can talk an interview and tell the people what they want to hear, doesn't mean they will actually do the job well! I have to say the two main things he said I didn't show was that I wouldn't be tough enough with the staff and second I didn't show my commitment and flexibility.....I told my colleagues and they nearly fell over with shock as they are my two strongest points.....Problem is I know I didn't sell them well as to me they are second nature not something to boast about. I must admit I did defend myself in the feedback and said I am a hands on person, come and see me working and he would see I am telling the truth (ie not just saying it to bulls....t through an interview!) He had to admit he had not actually asked anyone what I was like but would make the effort to see how his teams worked on the ground (he is new to the location). Right now I am de-stressed I will shut up on the matter!
On a positive note it appears I have won a competition, first in a long time...(so ok I was the only entrant!). Take a look at http://dossman.blogspot.com/ for my winning entry! Also at http://puppetdude3.blogspot.com/ where I found the link to the competition.
