Got another job! again!
I'm so excited 
Just changed jobs two months ago before my last company, the now defunct Subocean went into liquidation only to find this one seriously boring with
little to do and it's on the other side off Aberdeen making getting to work a real chore.
Wasn't happy at all 
So goes for an interview last thursday and gets an absolutely great job which is just 5 minutes drive from my house, so close I think I will just
cycle to work in the summer and can go home at lunch times to walk the dogs. Even better the missus works at the end of the road.
Couldn't have worked out any better
Happy days

Hmm don't know yet, not much in this place that's for sure and can only be an improvement
Got 3 valentines cards delivered to work this morning...
One from the missus and 2 from the cats and dogs (with scribbly child like writing on the animals ones) did made me laugh, she's a nutter
All I can say is I seem to have got the hang of these interviews, every one I've had over the last 5 years I get the job!

cheers
Well, some company’s do take their damn time to go through their HR procedures so you may already have been picked, they may just have not got through
all the paperwork, here's hoping
I was asked if I could start today! with the interview only last thursday I was like well I do have to work some sort of notice, rather than just
not turn up for work! some places are just mad
Not even getting a break with this move, the last one I did not work my months notice as I didn't believe that I'd even get paid (was
quite right as it turned out as they had no money for wages) so had a month’s holiday instead and went off to Tenerife class sure felt better when
I came back

Aberdeen though has no shortage of work at the moment, been plenty work available tbh
but it does pay to be flexible and look at many different job options, always better to have any job and looking than be on the dole and looking.
Almost everyone has had rubbish jobs before but at least its money in than out.
