Don't you just love it when things go right!

[Tigerlily]

Those of you that know me, know that things have been a bit up and down over the last 12 months what with one thing and another.



You'll have gathered that I just quit smoking (and probably during one of the worst weeks I've had in quite a while) so I'm really chuffed with myself for biting the bullet and doing that....... and...... things just got even better!!!!!



I've had a phone call this afternoon confiming that I've got a job!!!!!! :woot:


As of this Sunday I will be working at Ducati Manchester!!!!!!:woot: :woot: :woot:


I can't thank Two Dukes (Martyn) enough! :hail:



At last I'll have petrol money for the bike!:D

[Scotty]

I'll be working in various departments - clothing/accessories/parts so I'll be doing a bit of everything.
As for my job title - "assistant general dogsbody in-training" is one possibility :chuckle: (that means I don't actually know yet!)

[Tigerlily]

Congrats me love. Now....important things first, do you get a discount on all that bling?!


I seem to remember that "staff discount" was mentioned somewhere along the line :mand:

[STIVH]

Well done and congrats there Julie.

Eh Jules babe please!!!! nicely, please - can you remember to get someone to check that there is water in that damn coffee /tea machine so as those of us that arrive late on a Sat or Sun can grab a brew without having to sheepishly creep around someone looking as if we wanna buy a 749 ?

[Tigerlily]

Thanks Steve,


Sorry that you struggled to get a brew. I'll personally make sure that the drinks machine is kept topped up and I'll make you a drink myself if I'm there the next time you're in :D

[benson]

Hey Tigerlil - that's great news!!!!! Well done and I hope it's great fun - and next time I'm in my old home town I'll came and see you!!!! :yoparty: :yoparty: :yoparty:

[Tigerlily]

Make sure you do Rachel! It'll be lovely to see you again :D

[benson]

Well you never know - I'm considering a ride up at the end of the month because I really fancy checking out a hotel in Derbyshire perhaps for the mini weekender next year - I could murder a decent pint of Boddies!!!

[Tigerlily]

You've got a pm Rachel :D

[benson]

He he he - and you just might have a body on the sofa bed at the end of the month! Hurrah!!!!
:yoparty: :D :yoparty: :D :yoparty: :D

Nobody has to creep round pretending to buy anything, all more than welcome.......it's a small team down there that just got better, we are all delighted to have another Ducati fan as part of the team.........

[Tigerlily]

Well I did promise that I'd see to the coffee machine!


Just got back from my first day and I really enjoyed it - lots to learn and I'm looking forward it!

Clai you have good taste!

Tiger - can you get those "Potere" t-shirts at all? I have been after one of those for a while now and I neeeeeeeeed to buy myself an early birthday pressie.

[Black Ferret]

My fault, black feret not Nambduke, he has some mirrors, slightly scratched but polished off nicely !!!!!


That'll be mine then. I'd like to thank you for....err...polishing my mirrors without it sounding like some euphemism or other. But I'm not sure how.

[Tigerlily]

Clai you have good taste!

I'll have a look for you tomorrow and see what we've got :D............

[Mand]

Super bloody super! Do you require a tester of such products? :D The lady stuff of course......

[Tigerlily]

A tester? ..... of course! that's why they employed me! :woot:



I can't wait to go to work tomorrow! I've not said that in years!! (if ever)



I'll let you know when the T-shirts are in :D

[MrsJel]

Sorry if this is a hijack, but seeing potere t-shirts reminded me.

Is it me, or are the potere t-shirts expensive for what they are? (I know, this is Ducati, the word expensive goes with the territory) I'd seen them before and really liked them - so went over to get one from JHP - when the price came up (over 40 quid) I really didn't think the t-shirt was worth it. Compared to the mecanica t-shirt, the quality of the potere seems really cheap.

Moan over

Carole

[Pugi]

Wow, this site is excellent for everything. Even job finding!
Congratulations on the new job!

[two dukes]

Yup, the Potere range is expensive, it is hand sen on allegedly, I have the blue arrow up one !!! they are nice and do get attention, we did a bit of an order today, a big one coming up soon, you should see the 2007 stuff !!!!!!!!!!!:spin: :spin: :spin:

[Darry]

Mand

I prefer ladies in Ducati clothing :D :D :D

Well done and congrats on the new job Tigerlilly

I prefer them out of it! :D

Well done :tiger:

[Tigerlily]

I prefer them out of it! :D

Well done :tiger:


I can't believe it took 2 days for someone to say that! (why am I not surprised it was Darry though?) :chuckle:




If it was up to me Carole, everything would be half the price it is! Unfortunately it isn't and anything with a "designer label" doesn't come cheap. I suppose you're paying a bit extra to be different from the crowd.



Thanks for all the nice messages :D

[Darry]

I can't believe it took 2 days for someone to say that! (why am I not surprised it was Darry though?) :chuckle:


Hey, you'll give me a bad reputation! ;)
