I received this email today:

Thank you for forwarding your application in relation to vacancies within Accenture Services.

There's 2 small problems though. Number 1 - I don't know what position this is for. Number 2 - I don't remember applying for any positions within Accenture. It came to "jobs@philsumner....." which is the address I use when filling in job applications, so I have to assume I filled it in sometime.

*looks confused*

It's taken someone from work 3 days to realise that I'm off and call me to catch up. 3 days. That shows you what kind of company/organisation we're dealing with here.

I've got lots of stuff done whilst I've been off. Done loads of tidying and life organising, done plenty of job-hunting and sent off a load of applications/requests for application forms. I still don't particularly relish the idea of moving to sunny Shropshire (I'm a little prejudiced against it, I think... it's not a bad place from my limited experience, but it appears to be full of lots of nothing-ness) but I'll go anywhere right now.

Went out shopping today, nearly had a heart attack when I watched the subtotal going up - but then breathed a huge sigh of relief when the total suddenly dropped by £15 at the end - I had picked up £15 worth of Buy One Get One Free offers which don't get calculated until the end :) All good stuff too, mainly.

Mmmmm, Balvenie Doublewood. OhOh, and I have proper crystal glasses at last :) Not sure if it makes it taste better, but makes me feel posh *G*
