It's been a crazy few weeks, so much so that I couldn't concentrate on any blog type things, or anything much really.
Today is a new chapter in my life and I'm trying to feel enthusiastic about that, on this wet, cold day in Brighton, after having sat in the Housing Benefit Office feeling like a scrounger!
Our lovely little office & our even lovelier little team at work is no more. I didn't think I'd be as sad about that as I am but we'll be ok & hopefully good things will come to all of us.
So....let's do this. Let's find a great new job in London, let's find me that flat I want in Crouch End, let's start those trampolining classes!!!!!! After a few weeks of no response from anyone anywhere, next week is looking a bit more promising for yours truly & I have some agency meetings and a real interview - fancy that!
I don't really enjoy dealing with agencies but needs must I think & hopefully these ones will be better than the ones I saw the other week. One (I shall mention no names) actually looked at my CV and said "so you're not an academic then?" and then "If I'd have known how much money you were looking for, I wouldn't have seen you". My response (apart from the two fingered one I'd have liked to have given her) was "yes but if you look at my CV, you'll see that I've actually been working since I was 17 and have only been unemployed for about a month in my life......you rude cow". Ok so I didn't add the rude cow bit at the end but I felt like it.
I should really find a suitable picture to put up on today's ramblings I guess but then again....
