Nervous!

Post by **Chloe_88** » Mon Aug 05, 2013 1:44 pm

I am so frickin nervous !

My OH has a job interview tomorrow 9 am, finally!

After a year of not having a job, and no benefits or social welfare (or whatever you would call dutch social welfare).. it would mean the world to us.

He saw the manager 3 months ago, he become second.. He promissed he would phone back in august, because he would have a more suitable job for my OH.. we thought "yeah yeah whatever". OH went in to buy some petfood, the guy recognized him but was very busy at that time.. he phoned the next day, mentioned he had recognized him and invited him for an interview, tomorrow at 9am..

Fingers crossed! After 7 months of about 70 euro (guess about 90 us dollars) left after bills per month to feed, clothe us and feed 4 cats.. i'm tired of scrimping and saving.. I'm working to basically keep the house without any luxuries.. Only luxury round here is TV and internet, wich i get 40% off of, because i work at the cable company..

I don't want much.. but a new t-shirt would be nice once in a while. Forget t-shirts.. A new pair of socks would be great!

I cannot express how happy I am for you.

Only if I lived nearby I could take the newly employed for a nights celebration, one to last till the time clock rings

WORK

Maybe not such a good idea, :-3
