Thank you very much for all of your thoughts and feedback, once again I cannot underline enough that this is a genuine and sincere request. Thanks, Katie x If I was wrong in the suspicion I voiced at the end of my reply, I apologize. I hope you do a bang-up presentation and get the job, Katie. However, I am still unhappy that the potential employer is doing this to you. Even if the marketing campaign is in its beginning stages, they can still make use of the information you generate without giving you the job or proper compensation. As for Woofmutt's comment, I am aware that people come here all the time looking for commercial assistance. But I think there is a big difference between someone asking for help when building a bar or trying to sell something and being aboveboard about what they are doing, and using deception to get other folks to do their work for them. But if other folks on Tiki Central don't mind, I guess I am being overly sensitive about this and should just shut up Hey no worries and thank you very much for your best wishes, all these positive vibes add up so hopefully that plus a kick ass presentation will get me the role. The presentation is on Wednesday, I will be sure to come back and let you all know how I get on. Thanks again to all of you out there on Tiki Central. x Katie x
