Celsie, good luck with suing the pants off him - he deserves it! Your dad has only another four months left, is that right? You can get going now; in the UK a lot of legal stuff takes months to get going before your employer would know, if it's the same in Australia then just start it off now.

Call the girls and find out how they'd heard about this thing... also when their interviews would have been!

Good luck to you, I know how awful all the stress is (having had my job interview postponed for another six or more months now) and just want to wish you all the best and hope that a plan of action makes you less stressed and more focussed. Hugs!
