    I do I think this is the second time (bar breaking my leg) that I have ever taken sick leave in the 12 years I have been working and I feel super guilty for it and have gotten an email re a fook up :mad:

    I'm not overly familiar with your posting history so I did assume the worst :p haha
    It's what I use to describe silly questions, the printer breaking, the phone ringing constantly, and suppliers making muck-ups. (Just incase you thought I meant something else! :p)

    I've to meet a job agency in the morning, what's the normal attire for these, shirt and tie? Suit? Shirt and slacks? Upon further reflection, I don't want the job but the experience won't do me any harm or maybe the agancy could point me in the right direction. I work at the moment just incase someone thinks I'm committed to staying on the dole or something.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,925 ✭✭✭Otis Driftwood


    If its just a recruitment company then Id say you will be grand with a shirt and slacks tbh.Its not formal enough for a tie but a bit more formal than jeans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,646 ✭✭✭✭Sauve


    Yup, trousers and shirt should be grand. Especially if you don't want the job!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    I'd go all out and wear a suit without the tie tbh - from my dealing with recruiters if you look the part and you get on well with them they'll work harder for you to get the role

    Obviously you can say they're out for their commission but I've dealt with two very nice people from CPL in the last year or so and they treated me very well.

    Started the new job a few weeks ago and got a call on my first day from a one of these individuals to see if I was available, a company I'd interviewed with a number of months previous had asked him to see if I was available.

    When I said no he told me I was with a better company atm and wished me all the best - thought it was a very nice touch by him.

    There's nothing like 90 mins of punishing yoga to knock off the cobwebs from the weekend. Now to guiltlessly sit on the couch and drink endless cups of tea for the night :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,289 ✭✭✭parker kent


    ^ Ah tea. The greatest thing on earth. I've had a wonderful evening of tea, flapjacks and Peep Show. It's possibly my idea of heaven.
