Okay so they just switched my 5th round Inerview from HR to be with the VP of global sales again. This remains things moving in a positive direction but I have never interviewed with the same person twice before.


The interview went well I think and they confirmed they want to make a decision before the end of the year. Not sure what to make of it, he asked me various scenario questions and said I answered well. Said there may be one more interview or not. Not sure if they just making sure or are maybe making a decision between two final candidates perhaps. Fingers crossed. I really want this job!

This seems insane to me, 5 rounds of interviews? How many people applied? Is this job high level security or something?

I got Mr PigDog a giant toblerone for Christmas. Online shopping where you disassociate from what you are spending because it doesn't feel like real money. I just thought it would be funny.

4.5kg of chocolate.

The day after I did the order I suddenly wondered how the hell we would get through it. Then it was delivered and it is bloody massive! My little boy has been getting creative about where to hide it but not good enough and his dad has found it already. We've been pissing ourselves laughing all day. I don't know what we are going to do with it!

Yes, which is why we all thought Poms were such cheap bastards since they can't seem to handle much of our currency.

Like I said, online shopping disasssociated from reality. What have I done?!

We're having a quiet Christmas otherwise. Now spent sitting in elasticated waistbands and eating toblerone.

It makes REALLY good chocolate fondue.
Bonus if you dip fruit in it it's healthy.

Mum just came by for a quick weekend visit, hit the christmas market, and she dropped us off an 11l air fryer.

My goodness this thing is beefy. Big enough that we can cook 80% of our christmas dinner in it!

Omg Omg Omg

Just got done with leave the world behind.

I was just thrilled for this concept of a movie to be made. Shown to the masses.

Sponsorsed by the Obamas too!! And Barack gave notes on the making to make it more accurate. Lol awesome.

(We all know the powerful are major preppers. Notice where obama and bush bought there bug out property..put us military bases right near them too.)

I hope you all watch and have a equally fantastic day.

Remember you got to read the other news that doesnt make page one! Enjoy.
