  Sounds like a very interesting man.  If you've gotta work it may as well be in a field you love with a few perks thrown in to keep it from getting dull.  I'd go for it.

  It sounds good, and you trust the guy, so if I were in your shoes I'd at the least consider it.  You might want to ask him exactly what the job requires.  He seems pretty straight forwards from what you say, but if you'd be reporting to someone other than him you might want to meet that person too.

  Lucy - as long as the hubby is cool with it and there are no unspoken 'undertones' if you know what I mean.I would say go for it.I mean what do you have to lose? Would it be a better salary? Doing something you enjoy? chance of perks??
  I would say find out what the job entails,hours of work,expectatins on both sides,what perks and so on??
  Sound good though

  Wow Luce - that's what I call friggin' exciting girl!
   
  Seriously though, if this guy has been hassling you for a while then he obviously sees in you something that he wants in his company.  He may also be going on his gut instinct about you too, which, for a guy who owns half the town and is a multi millionaire, then I'd say his gut instincts have done him pretty good so far wouldn't you?
   
  Don't worry about what to ask him.  I find that, until you are actually doing the job - on the job training and such - it's almost impossible to come up with questions apart from the obvious.  Don't try and ask 'clever' questions to impress him or anything - you don't need to babe - he's already impressed by the sound of things :-)
   
  Tell him straight if the post interests you - tell him what scares you too i.e. challenge, change (although I very much doubt challenge scares you - it's your middle name aint it ha ha)
   
  Let him do all the talking and ask a genuine question when it arises.  Tell him that you would like a trial period.  HE  and his company will be on trial too right?  Don't be afraid to ask about salary, annual leave, and yes, perks :-)  He obviously knows you got balls or he wouldn't want you in the first place.  If this is something that can improve your lives and you and hubby are behind each other, then go for it girl. 
   
  God Luce - I wish you all the luck in the world.  You so-o-ooo deserve it.

  Okay okay.... as far as reporting to anyone it would be him and his wife, she runs a part of their busiensses (transport side) he runs all the properties and stations including the venues.... now what I'd be doing is getting corporate business, marketing the absolute shit out of the palce to film execs overseas trying to pull in business there along with building one venue up enough for the general public.
   
  There would be a sallary, not sure what at first I think it would be part time which is what I'm kind of doing now... anyway there is also an opportunity for me to do the photography at one of the venues - you know have your pic taken on a bull kind of shit.  Fun! you bet, I'm kind of sick of all the wank jobs, the attitudes and being around people that I grew up with... anyway I see him tomorrow so we'll see then.
