I took my daughter for a job interview on Tuesday afternoon ...... http://www.brook.org.uk/brook-oldham  Apparently they'd only phoned her last Friday to invite her to attend .... and woken her up too 
They phoned her this afternoon to say that she 'blew them away' at the interview & she's got the job! First proper interview too. She's no idea of salary! 

We're chuffed! 

Just need to get my lad working now. .........

Great stuff mate 

Likewise on getting my lad working, he's written to about 12 places now, none of them are interested  However he is waiting on a call from BMW to see if he can get in there on Saturdays, but they said they'd ring him this week, nothing yet

Well don, that girl! 

[SIR Philbutt]

Well done to her not easy done nowadays .. 

Additional income to the household as well - that's if you can get her to pay her "keep" 

[omegod]

Well done indeed, I presume it's the Brook advisory as my works email won't let me see the site. Given what she was doing with Lifeline it's a good avenue to get into the substance misusue field if thats what she wants to do! Jobs aren't easy come by and I know how hard it is to "blow away " an interview panel as I am on them all time.

[Darth Loo-knee]

Good for Her
Now stop that overtime Andy and get her board in 

[Johnny English]

Well done to her and congrats you, Andy !

Funny you should mention keep/board. She does work now, behind a bar & waitressing at council owned civic centres, & we'd just mentioned to her before Christmas that she should be out there looking for a job more suited to her uni degree and if she wasn't even looking she should be making a contribution 

[ninjapirate]

Well done! Hope it all goes really well for her. So difficult to get a job these days!
Ive got friends that literaly spend all week searching for jobs and sending aplication forms off, for over 12 months and still no luck!

25% of net income here - cheaper than renting thats for sure

[Dishevelled Den]

Great news indeed, well done to her.

[Andy B]

....

I'll print that off to show her! 

[LJay]

That's fab news Andy!  Really pleased for you both.

Just to expand on that
"Life lessons" dictated the need for a decent amount of "keep"
Plenty of "My friends dont pay that much" with "they dont live here" replies
When they earned nothing they paid nothing
When they moved into their own places we helped by buying essentials, eg pots, pans, cutains etc,etc so they did get quite a lot back and appreciated it
Good luck implemeting that one
