I think that is probably the correct conclusion.

And it would be so easy for them to say - sorry but they have found someone else.
If that person then doesnt want it, phone up and say "There has been a problem are you still interested ?"

I agree. They could say "It's sort of good news. You are number 2 and I need you on standby just in case". But instead, they are evasive, pretend to be unavailable or make stuff up. I stand by my tediously-quoted claim: recruitment agents are habitual liars. And when one is benched and dealing with them all the time, the lies start becoming transparent and predictable. And that is just so frustrating. You can't give your wife a straight answer ("Did you get it or not?" "Dunno" "So ask him" "I did" "And did you get it or not?" "Dunno")

I feel for you, I really do.

Still, it's the weekend now and you have a family to enjoy.

That would involve some degree of knowledge, personality, professionalism, courtesy.....

DD2 showered and ready for a glass of milk and a flake

I'm just having a glass of vino and ready to warm the chilli chicken up

DD2 had a great time at the party and came back a bit sweaty - only to be expected from those jungle gym places

DD1 &DD2 have written their Christmas card for school friends, nearly 100 between them
