Grit my teeth as have run out of excuses not to face recruiting again, as my wonderful friend and lady who helps is back to remove horrendous dog – mine, and swipe the odd surface of house – also mine.  So good to see her, especially as dog has been so particularly foul that am able to delay facing cv’s for at least half an hour while I catch up on her family gossip – hers ( myself being unable to provide any as family, in shape of son and heir, has still yet to detach himself from an Antipodean bar long enough to wish me Happy Easter, leave along provide some juicy morsels). 

 

There is then no escaping it.  This week’s trawl is supposed to produce a new book-keeper and another sales person of a junior variety.  Quite apart from anything else, none but the direst cv owner’s appear to be able to start for a month which reduces me to contemplating tracking some random outside Anglian broadcast and appearing with placards bearing “ Jobs for Sale”  – given that we need both these people.   Desperately!!  Now !! 

 

My favourite, however, is undoubtedly the gentleman who writes and assures me that he could do both jobs – no cv provided, only his assurance – but that he would be requiring both salaries.  I write back and politely explain that unfortunately both are full time positions  and indeed in two different buildings, and therefore impossible for anyone to do both.  Back comes the speedy reply observing that for such an innovative, look ahead company, I have an incredibly narrow view point.  Oh dear – must be what I have been doing wrong all these days.
