I was hoping for some sort of e-mail confirming or rejecting the forced application I had to make after the mandatory interview I had yesterday regarding warehousing work, involving an agency expecting me paying for my own safety boots and for my own criminal record check. I was told at interview to expect instructions on applying for these things (which I now know to be outside my budget) but no such instructions arrived yesterday (when they were promised they would arrive) or today. This could mean the agency company no longer want to employ me (hooray) but that is normally relayed to me by the welfare people who get a full assessment of how I behaved at the interview they arranged). Instead, I was left entirely in the dark. Worrying. As I need new shoes I went to my favourite shoe shop only to find it closed as it has relocated. I found the new branch was also closed as it won’t officially open until tomorrow. I went to the community centre for what proved to be a series of exercise games we could play without leaving our chairs – good fun. We all got lots of pies, donuts and bread rolls for going too. A big thanks to everyone involved. Arthur Chappell
