MN, bugger about the job! It sounds perfect except for the time away from home, and I'm so glad they're that interested in you and will be keeping you in mind. Fingers crossed you can find something just as good with better hours.

I had an interesting day today and need a little help. We are in the process of selling our investment house and reducing debt. It will mean I don't need to work. But, I was offered a job! It is perfect, with lovely people, a great small business, doing exactly the stuff I like from 9-3 two days a week. DH finishes work at 3 and the kids finish daycare at 3 so it's ideal. So, now I need to resign. That part makes me nervous. My line manager is interstate until Thursday, and then he works in the city an hour away. Is it ok to resign over the phone? What do I do?
