Life on the bench: in my dressing gown

[suityou01]

Indeed. I was confident I was going to have to be in work from 9 a.m. today. Oh well. Today is their Big Meetings day, so maybe I'll hear something by the end of the week.

Meanwhile, I've decided I need to get back to searching for a gig properly. It is really hard to do when you feel you have an offer, but needs must and opportunities are passing me by.

I have wasted this morning drivelling on here, so I've got dressed and I'm ready to start my day. Up 'n' at 'em!

Put a call in to the bloke what interviewed you. You know, the one that promised you a start date. Agency is not really playing fair, so it's gloves off time I reckon.

HTH

This practice by agents of refusing to tell the candidates after they have attended an interview that they were not successful is one of the reasons why I was so glad to stop contracting.

That's interesting. While I have been on the bench I have put on 5.5 Kgs.

The Worldly Hope men set their Hearts upon
Turns to Ashes , or it Prospers; and anon,
Like Snow upon the Desert's dusty Face
Lighting a little Hour or two -- is gone


Well - lets hope it all works out for you - I could always ask my Gaurdian Angel to help you out but unsure that you might not - oh too late - it already knows ; so all will be fine now.

Bonne Chance !

I've lost a similar amount since being benched five months ago. I've been a lot more physically active, the worst of working in IT is the sitting on your arse all day.

Yikes - just had a technical interview for a "do everything - dba - design etl stuff - develop sql scripts - unix systems admin - type of job" Brain eventually exploded when asked if I have Windoze 2008 server admin knowledge (I don't).
Guy interviewing me must have thought my IQ was decreasing by the minute - I felt I was a jabbering wreck by the end.
Ah well, must be down to alcohol deficiency - to be remedied later

OK, done! Just got back. We saw sheep and the brook and the same tractor 6 times and cyclists and dog walkers and children picking blackberries. It was good.
