Story of a Contractor to Permie

[rootsnall]

Im biding my time. Just need the mortgage then it's asta la vista.

Only been perm for four days, already feel like slashing my wrists.

I thought they were giving mortgages away these days !?

Just imagine what it must feel like without an exit strategy. I did a 12 month permie stint 10 years ago to get into SAP, I bought a calender and ticked the days off, resigned after 11 months, out the door 12 months to the day.

Must have been like being in prison... did you count how many donations - leaving,babies, marriage bollux etc. you had to give to?

Don't worry about the mortgage...I went in to my bank last December and asked to borrow £170k even though I had no work on and had no intention of working for a couple of months...I had less than a year as a contractor and before going contracting had taken 4 months off to recover from several years as a permie...

Opening line to the bank manager was...'Ok...so we can spend the next couple of hours putting some spin on this, but essentially I don't have a job and I'd like to borrow £170k please...'

If only I'd had a camera!

Still...got the mortgage...so...no need to stick at being a permie any more...resign...and resign now!

Hallo Dear, I missed you.

Been busy?

So you will have done:

Induction with HR
The floor walk to meet all your dip stick colleagues (hope you remembered their names)
Found out where the stationary cupboard is
A tour of the canteen
Got your pass sorted out
Diversity training

Don't forget the Health & Safety lecture about walking around with hot liquids...

Or running up the stairs with a bike on your shoulder.

Never knew there was a rule for that, until I was told there was.
