The wonderfully timed humour has made an impact on my list of 'what to do'. There's enough tension and pressure that we put on ourselves for that perfect result, but you've made me realise that the journey doesn't have to be that arduous - it's just a matter of cleverly timed stepping stones as preparation. Thanks for such a well-written article - your flair for words has certainly made it easier for me to take in these key points. You've empowered me - the sky's the limit now!

It's so true that you need to look after one. Companies want your loyalty but if company profits are down, they only care about the bottom line. This is awesome!

Oh gosh, funny but so true. And I loved (and cringed) at the image of returning that call thinking it was the hot guy only to find yourself on the other end of a 20 minute phone interview. That's the exact sort of thing that would happen to me! Very timely information. Hilarious, but at the same time, much needed. You had me cracking up! Oh gosh, funny but so true.

Companies want you to be loyal but at the end of the day, they are not going to show you that loyalty back. Very clever article. I laughed all the way through. “You have to look after number one and arm yourself with all the artillery you can get in the financial crisis.” – This is so true!
