Default Oh, ffs!

Just when my perfect Alfa pops up on ebay (155 TSpark Super - with the
essential climate control) - I have it confirmed that I've passed the
online tests and scored an interview for a job with a car.

Unfortunately, said interview is the day after the auction ends, meaning
I'll have to let it go :-(

No pleasing some people

In true alfisti style I shan't ask any details about the job but does it
have a good opt out car scheme!

Good luck
Tony

I was chatting about this to Catman last night (on MSN before you say
anything......) - it's district manager for a large high-street booze
emporium. I applied a long time ago, but only had a reply yesterday, so
I can't remember if the advert was '+car' or '+car allowance'.

I did suggest that they'd probably lumber me with a Mondeo Diesel.

I'm sorry, do I have some sort of reputation? - everyone I've told about
this has said something along similar lines (usually hinting that the
staff discount will come in handy).
