    Default How annoying!

    I have been in all week except for the school runs.

    Went out for the afternoon school run and came back to find a message on the answerphone asking if I had a vacancy for a full time 4 month old baby starting in Feb! They didnt leave a number and said they would call back after 4pm. I did 1471 but the number was with held And they havent called back!

    Why did she choose the 20 mins I am out to call! Nightmare.

    Love

    Debbie

    Sorry! Hope they call you over the weekend.

    Ha! Debbie - I had exactly the same thing today...EXACTLY! I was literally going out the door for the school run when the phone went...I dithered, then thought, no cos I'll be late...I had a hunch it would be business. They havent phoned back either!! Wonder if its the same people? I know we are opposite sides of town, but still! Hope they bell you back,

    Sx
