Our quest for the Anxiousness Scheduler continues. following the first blog post, we have received a couple of emails from people who claim to be one of know of someone connected with the phrase. This web page is a collection of interviews with the people who have contacted us. If you have your own story, please make contact using the form at the bottom of the page.
The First Anxiousness Scheduler
Who are you and what do you do?
I am Julie and I am an aspiring Scheduler.
What is involved when it comes to being a scheduler?
It mainly involves being working for one person, I am in charge of scheduling that persons daily activities, basically like a personal assistant.
Have you done any scheduling before?
I have. I used to work for this big time executive in central London. He had a lot of money but the money never really came my way, not for the amount of sacrafices I had to make in my personal life. He wasn't really much of a nice person so in the end I had to leave.
So you are looking to work in a similar position, but preferably with someone nicer to you?
Yes, I quite like the work. I just prefer to be rewarded for the effort I put into the job. Earning more would also be a bonus. I don't really mind working the occasional late night, but a bit more of a personal life would be nice as well.
Where does the 'Anxiousness' part come into it?
Well, my whole past experience has made me like it. With my old job I was always kept on my toes. It was a very anxious time with hardly any rest. So I am very anxious about any new jobs that come my way, but I am excited at the same time.
Thanks Julie for the interview. You have been the first anxiousness scheduler to contact us.

A Second Person Contacted Us
We have been fortunate enough for someone else to email us regarding our continued hunt to find Anxiousness Schedulers.
Who are you and what do you do?
My name is John and my son has been inspired by your previous article on the Tom Howlett website.
Exciting stuff, tell us more.
Well, he is currently a product design student at Cardiff university and has been struggling for ideas for his final year project. After some searching online he managed to come across your previous post and was inspired by the potential of the Anxiousness Scheduler game. After a initial ideas session, he has decided to bring this game to life, taking it from concept to manufacture.
Wow, how is he getting on with it?
He has really got stuck into the project and has developerd your initial idea into a fun, strategy style board game. The first mock-ups look very promising and his project leaders are pleased with the progress.
How has he worked in the anxiousness element?
He was playing around with a few ideas at first. Some of the ideas include the players receiving a small electric shock, others were less intense and created anxiousness through the idea of not knowing your fate in the game.
Do you reckon he will take it further once his project has finished?
He seems quite excited about it and would possibly be interested in taking it to market once he has finished his course. This depends on the reaction to the game at his design show. If he can't get a job after uni, it wouldn't hurt to develop it further in his spare time.
Thanks John, that is a great story and thanks for getting in touch.
