    11.30. I will see you then.” I said, trying to get off the phone. “Yes, thank you again. Oh, and don’t forget to come prepared.” She uttered and hung up. I laughed to myself at her somewhat predictable double entendre as we ended the call. No sooner had I pressed the little red icon and another call came in. This time the caller ID was unknown. Grudgingly, I took the call. “Hello Ray. It’s Abby.” She hesitated, waiting for my response. “Hi Abby,” I answered, feeling annoyed with myself for taking the call. I had been made redundant just prior to Christmas the year before and Abby was assigned to be my outplacement mentor, as part of the redundancy package. To date we had met a number of times and she had reconstructed my resume and given me her ‘pearls of wisdom’ regarding interview technique. At out last meeting I had asked for a break from our regular meeting schedule she had devised; I was starting to feel she was just a well paid word bank and wasting my time. “I am still looking for work, to cut to the chase.” “Oh…still no luck. That’s a shame.” The attempt at empathy sounded well practiced ...
    and shallow. “How about we catch up and review what you have been up too and where to from there?” The cynical hackles at the back of neck rose and it took all the self control I could muster not to dismiss her offer out of hand. “Where and when would suit you?” I asked flatly. “How about 9.30 tomorrow? Maybe at the usual cafe in Lane Cove Mall?” I took a deep breath to calm myself. “That works for me, both the time and the place. I have a meeting scheduled for 11.30, so allowing an hour for you, I should be able to make that comfortably.” I mentally kicked myself for giving her too much information. “See you then.” I hung up and mentally screamed ‘ FUCK ’. I knew she was trying to help but when all was said and done, that was her job. She got paid to give advice but for me that made it all that much worse. As far as I was concerned, she was all care and no responsibility. She still got paid regardless of whether I got a new job or not. “ Oh, well ,” I thought, “ at least I can get her out of the way first up and then I can turn all my attention to Clare. Now , that is something to look forward to .”
