Result (sort of)

We had a nice e-mail of apology from the Housesitting Agency. They say their ‘internal investigation’ has highlighted a ‘routine miscommunication’ that led to us being ‘unfairly undervalued’ and they have ‘deep regret’ and are ‘instigating further staff training measures’ and ‘re-assessing agency procedures’ to ‘avoid similar future occurrences’ etc.. etc… etc… They obviously subscribe to the same “How To Bullshit In Business” magazine that the supermarket does.
Anyway, the upshot is that we’ve had our names and references passed on to the owners of the place in Suffolk with a recommendation that we be considered for the sit; so we’ll see where we go from here….
