So Monday arrived and I got a call from my future Sales Manager to say he had left the company. So I then phoned HR to find out where that left me as Patrick didn't know. I was due to start on Oct 11. HR said they would be in touch, they then re interviewed me on Thursday and I gave a poor performance and I find out on Monday where I stand. To say I am gutted and confused by this is an understatement, if I didn't love the place so much I would just walk. Our friend John was also interviewed the same day, he finds out Monday. Apparently HR were poker faced with him as well. The thing which might go in my favour is that I greeted the guy in HR and spoke and understood enough to get to the room. He then started to try and interview me in Spanish to which point I had to explain in Spanish I spoke little Spanish apparently he told John he wanted someone who was prepared to learn Spanish and would give free lessons. There is more than one post.
On Wednesday, we had another free Canarian Chicken (or in my case Omlette) night with James company and his clients. One of the perks of his job.
Well six weeks after opening the kids bank accounts the La Liga Stickers and books have eventually arrived. 300 stickers each, so you can guess what James is doing at the moment. I think he is really enjoying it. Amazing how good James Spanish is when it comes to pronuncing footy teams. shame about the rest of the time.
Natalia is making loads of friend the social animal she is, yesterday she went to play with Kaia, had to laugh all the way to Tenerife to become best of buddies with another North Easterner. They apparently had a great time playing High School Musical in the pool.
Went to the official opening of the Glass Spider last night, it is great to be sitting outside chatting and dancing in the middle of October. The kids are so safe, they hangout together and everyone is watching out for them, it is a lovely community. Nearly had a fit when I went to the loo and three girls the combined age of 23 were putting make up on in the mirrors. This is how small the community is Frank's flatmate was one of the cabaret acts, Frank has no connections with the Glass Spider unlike us.
Linda is coming over 15 - 22 November with Kathy, we are really looking forward to it.
Happy Birthday Dad, 21 for the 3rd time!
