Vics Journey The beginning

This is how my amazing journey that will end up in dubai all started.....
Lazy boring days at the bank in Gosport twidling thumbs and just being bored. My friend and work collegue Becky was telling me about how she used to be cabin crew for Thomas Cook how they used to travel all round the world, the fun they used to have being cabin crew. So i went home that day and did a search on Google for cabin crew jobs and EMIRATES was all over the first page: " would you like to live in glorious dubai and travel the whole world" I was hooked on the idea immediately so i applied. Not even 2 days later i was invited to go to London for interview i almost wet myself with excitement so i packed up my bag and headed off to London with my housemate Chris. I met some really really nice people there got measured for height and being only 5" 2" i was worried about that but that was the minimum requirement so everything was fine. I got through the first 2 stages and invited back for a half an hour final interview the next day AWESOME!! The final interview was a lot of questions about your experience in service and a lot of questions about you. I went home got some pictures done and waited which was the hardest part. I KEPT getting my pictures wrong and even went up to London from Portsmouth to the studio they recommend on the 4th attempt but that still wasnt good I dont think i'm very photogenic. On the fifth attempt they said YES so i waited about 2 weeks and got THE phone call about 8 30 in the morning I got the job and was leaving in November.
