Be aware!

Yo! to all my peoples out there.  Those especially in this current economic unemployment market.
I was recently sent an email from a recruiter that claimed to say that I had been successful for a job role and please could I call this mobile number.  Well, ultimately, as you do, I jumped to the chance and dialled this mobile number. It all seemed really professional and I was kept on hold for a while and then I thought oh they must be just busy.  So, I dailled a few times and then hung up.  I looked over the email and could not remember if I had applied for this job role or not, then I thought well it must be too good to be true and it was.... as when I checked my phone bill I realised that the number I had called was a premium rate mobile number.  I was so furious, I could not believe it.  So I sent an email to Watch dog to investigate.  How could it be possible that someone is cashing in on the current unemployed market like this.  It is most distasteful indeed. So please remember to check back on your diaries of the jobs you have applied for and check who the email is from before you respond or dial any mobile or any telephone numbers.
I had to pay at least £7.00 for the calls but now I am ever so vigilant for these types of emails.
So please remember to stay vigilant and be aware!

Friends with Benefits

Friends with benefits - but what does that actually mean? Someone once said to me if you meet a guy and all he wants is to be intimate with you and just wants to be friends, then this means you are seen as a 'friend with a benefit'. Oh please! How is it that men just cannot be men and be honest.  For example when you go into a shop you are being honest with the shop worker about what you want.  They do say if you don't ask you don't get.  Yet some men are just out to get get get aren't they with out being honest - Can i get a hey yeah from the ladies?
Sometimes as women being the fairer sex, we seem to appear to be female creatures who can't help but fall in love with Mr Wrong.  but if he was just honest in the first place then there would be a lot less heart break and we all know how long it takes to mend a broken heart don't we ladies?
Anyway much heartbreak put aside, I invite all the good men out there to leave a comment on my blog about why they are honest and good. At least the best cure for a broken heart is lots of chocalate, clothes shopping and icecream and some good music or if your're like me lots of ciggarettes - ha ha  that is bad i know, or you could always just look in the mirror, stand tall and wipe those tears and say to yourself: 'I am an attractive woman and will draw the best possible person to me'.
So friends with benefits could also mean that you have a friend that always lends you money or helps you fix things or the best friend with a benefit is the one that respects you and doesn't disrespect you in any way.
for me that is best benefit a friend can give you and vice versa.
