August, what a sh*t bloody month. Four interviews for promotion, none of them come through, no negative feedback, all really positive from each one, just no offer of a job with no more positions opening up any time soon. Not car related at all but can't vent in the usual channels due to people involved being on them. Not another Z in the carpark nor has there been for 7 years so feel it won't be seen here! At least the Zed went through with a clean MoT

Great news with the Z4 OP. :thumbsup:

As far as all the other stuff goes, I know how you feel. I did the same job as others for years but on a lower grade (so lower pay). :(

In 2009 I finally got "promoted" to near the level I should have had anyway - then in 2010 I took early retirement on a final salary scheme. :rofl:

I haven't looked back!

Hopefully one day it will all work out. :thumbsup:

My bad... baby talk from some movie that caught on and people use it as a humorous apology for screwing up ..... I hate it almost as much as " top of mind", that drives me insane and it's usually said by a newscaster or similar type who should know better..... but they don't because they are trying to be cool or something..... Aaargh!
