Nearly there

Well somehow I managed to let all of April go by without posting. Shame on me. Wish I could say major things have happened but it's not the case. 21 working days to go before I get the boot and things are awful quiet around here. Canteen is down to soup and sandwiches and the weather is warm and sunny so the temptation is always there to knock off early and sit on the grass for the afternoon. After this week I'll be almost on my own on the corridor.

Things to look forward to: new Dinosaur Jr. album; holidays in Germany; Bank holiday weekend ahead. It ain't all doom and gloom.

It's official

I've got it in writing - I'm being shown the door on 31 May. Most of the building will have finished by then so it'll be a quiet old place to work in. That's if I'm still doing any work.

So after 8 and a half years that's that. I really don't know what I'll be doing next. Could be still in Cork, could be elsewhere in Ireland, maybe travelling for a bit. It's a bit scary but (cue Ned Flanders voice) gosh darn it, it'll be a lot of fun too!

Stay tuned is all I can say right now...

Belated shout

Oh yes, thanks to Will for the mention. Got to go and do interview prep now...

Things are moving fast

Phone interview on Friday. First one for an outside job in 8 years... so that should be fun. The first time I haven't done one face to face - not sure if this makes it easier or harder. Also the job isn't in Cork - I didn't expect that for my first interview. Anyway we'll see what happens. Feels good to be actually pusuing something rather than sitting on my hands waiting.

People are blogging

Yes it's strange all right.
