Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 7-9-2016

You know … It’s day three of joblessness … 

And I manage avoid an interview!

One of the manager for a local post office literally phoned me, yesterday: to see if I could come in for an interview.

I said ‘No’: as I wanted to write a letter of complaint to my former employers, about the way things had gone.

I’m KICKING myself!   As the job sounded ideal!

Once I’d finished what I had to do?   I managed to phone the interviewer, to let her know I’d be available for the rest of the day.

But lord knows what’s going to happen, there … !

~≈†≈~

Another thing to worry about?   At least, to be kicking myself about?

Is the finances.

I’m now claiming benefits: and due to have my initial claim interview, tomorrow.

I can live with that.

But?

Only a few days ago, I’d’ve been looking forward to the 5th November: as the day sees the release of the completely animated version of The Power of the Daleks.

The long lost story is a Dalek one — obviously — and notable for being Troughton’s first.

I’m mildly gutted!

But hoping a minor miracle happens, to let me afford it …
