Final Answer

So I missed a call in work today from my recruiter. He left a message saying ...

"Hey Joanne, Just to let you know that we have a great placement for you but I think we need to discuss it first, so if you could call me back it'd be great."

So me, being me, I went crazy! Does that mean I got it and Dave didn't, which means they need to 'talk' to me, or does it mean we both got it and they need to just 'talk' to me???

So first thing I did was call Dave.

"Hey how are you?"
"On my way into work"
"Ok, just wondering... Any news from AEON?"
"No"
"Ok Bye"
(Hang up abrubtly!)

So did he get it and just hasn't got the phone call???? or has he not!!!!!

After 4 hours of panicing, many of them on calls to various long-suffering friends, I came home, returned his call, to find that he was on lunch! HOW DARE HE!

So spent quite a while walking around with a phone in my pocket until finally he called back.

He gives me all the information about my placement (more to follow on that one), about 15 minutes worth, all the time, in my head I'm screaming 'ARG!!!! What about DAVE!!!!'

Finally he says
"So here's some information you'll be interested in ... Daves placement"
I very cooly said of course, taking down all the information, inside dancing my crazy happy dance.

Once the phone call was done, and all the family informed, I called Dave, 'Just to say Hi' Of course!

So he tells me his recruiter has called and asked him to call back when he can take notes. Playing dumb I agree that sounds promising and he tells me he'll call as soon as he's done! Hee hee! Got off the phone and giggled like a little girl!

When he does phone back his first words were 'You BRAT!'. Hee hee.

So now we just have to work out if this is the best placement for us!
