Handing in your notice is such an awesome feeling!

I left work last week and this week has flown in! Unemployment is awesome.

porridge beats everything. though it has left a nasty taste in the mouth. even though it wasnt directed at me, why not get a loada answers back!!!

Aye, starting 1st Feb. I'm having a week off, then off on holiday on Tuesday. God knows when I'll next get a holiday so I have to get my priorities right. Work or holiday? Tough choice. LOL

I haven't have breakfast yet, I'm still in bed. I repeat - unemployment is awesome!

My merit score is around 120 N/RC so fingers crossed for you.

They wanted me to start on 1 Feb but I need to give notice to my old job, not that I will be doing any work from now on!!

Cheers bud. If I don't get a call for the March intake, at least I know I'm not far off it. I still have it in my mind that I'm more likely to get called for April or May.

I'm sure it crossed your mind just to take the February start and forget about giving notice.

DownMTBer

So if I am just over 100 Non RC should I be expecting a call? I have completely lost track of who has what merit and background...

So I am worried now...

My merit is just over 100 Non RC and i've still not had a call... :mad: why would Non RC's with bigger numbers than me get calls before me?

Arrrgggghhh this process is awful!:p

I would have thought you would have heard already. Cooper1980 and PC Inwaiting are both non-RC around 120. I'm fairly confident that you'll hear soon enough.

well done cooper-PC in waiting, Carlty I can feel your good news coming soon!!!! Congrats to all! Really pleased for ya's!:D

DownMTber... There's no way of knowing what order they are calling people in. They could have pooled the candidates for March into one list and are working down it alphabetically. Don't be worrying just yet!


... unless your surname is Aadvark or something.

squirrel81

CONGRATS to everyone who got the call, you lucky sods. Not jealous, really. :D

How'd you know that was my surname!!!?? :eek:

Hehe seriously tho... you know what its like squirrel! Can't help but be worried

Gotta get on tho! I have work to do!

Mark63

Well done to everybody who got the call. Jealous really you know!

Looks like there's gonna be alot less people on here speculating, wondering, hoping ...

Hope a few more get calls - remember some of us still in vetting!!

MORRI

well done all you lucky sods!!
DownMTBer has your vetting cleared?
I think they really need an RC in the 400's to balance the March intake up a bit;)
