AstonMartyn88 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Going for a job interview to then be told you weren't successful but the old chestnut "We cannot give you any feedback now" Surely you must have feedback there and then as you've made the decision there and then therefore the reason(s) for rejecting me should be fresh in your mind. Could be worse mate, at least you know you weren't successful. I've had 15 interviews in the last six months and I would say at least a third of them I've never even received an answer. Recruitment consultants are the scum of the earth - as soon as you're no longer of interest to them, they won't return your call. More often than not I don't even get acknowledgement of my application/whether or not I've been shortlisted. I hate recruitment consultants with a passion, they're all words removed.

b6bloke Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 JOBSWORTHS!!! pulled into a Tesco petrol station and half the pumps arent working and the next free pump has a guy struggling to use the "pay at Pump" plus his trailer means I cant get close enough to fill up. I put my car facing the other way and put in the nozzel only to have the manager come out saying that he will not arm my pump because my car is facing the wrong way!! "its company policy and you may be tempted to drive out the no exit sign" Even after pointing out that if was so thick to do that it wouldnt be possible as there is a massive queue of cars trying to get in and explaining that I would follow the correct path out he still refused! Bastard made all the cars reverse so I could make my car face the right way and the **** in front had only just worked out how to use the pump!!! In all honesty it wasnt worth the abuse I gave him in the shop after but what is it with some people!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shillzz Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I hope to be off fairly soon, though there's no hint of any movement yet. I am slightly annoyed at being one of only 3 people in the office though, everyone else was allowed to work from home. Just because I live withing 15 minutes of work, I had to come in, yet everyone else got to stay at home, with a couple of people not even bothering to log in. Fair to say i've meddled with their desks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 normally there is a few more people than this in the office to be honest but they normally start letting people leave in dribs and drabs from 2:30 onwards via names in a hat even if they let one person go early I wouldnt really mind staying till 5 but to have everyone stay just seems a bit shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
