A Tiny Piece of Needed Disaster

My first credit card[1] arrived yesterday. I've been thinking about my Amazon Wish List, wondering about a paid LJ account and dreaming of a digital camera.

Oh, and I'll be unemployed in about a month's time.


1. The credit card I had in university doesn't count since it was linked to my father's account and purely for emergency situations (i.e. purchase of new boots, trips to Florence and hotels in Buffalo, New York.)

They already hired someone else for my position. But, to be honest, even if it was available I wouldn't take it. The work was very mundane and repetitive admin stuff, which was driving me mad. Although I love the organisation, I really need to find a job that engages me more.

Go, ProspectUs, Go!!!

I hear you on that! Sometimes you've just got to go back home - and five weeks sounds reasonable to me. If your current workplace ain't amenable....

Yup, it looks like I'll be calling ProspectUs' permanent division. ;-)

I really want a long holiday and I new challenge afterwards, so it feels like the right thing to leave my current job.

How are things going with you? Are you back yet in London? We should meet sometime for a coffee in our neighbourhood and do some catch up.

Catch Up

Definitely!

I'm still in Oz having a hard time of it. I just want to go to sleep!

Very best wishes for your holiday. I'm so happy you're going back for a visit. xxx

Thank you! I hope things lighten up in Oz and you have a good time over there. Take care.
