First week on a new contract

[conned tractor]

Fook it's expensive to live in surrey/west sussex (yes, I had looked before), I've had the threppnies for two out of three days and on speaking to the new boss about standards of candidate at interview he said that my interview "wasn't the best, but he thought I'd fit into the team" I'd better start making the tea then .

Why did you have that conversation in the first place?

........my interview "wasn't the best, but he thought I'd fit into the team"...............

The very definition of "Damn with faint praise".
I expect you were none too flattered

Why did you have that conversation in the first place?

True I got a contract once because I talked tulip about music for too long, and it turned out over 90% of the IT dept were ex roadies so they didnt want someone who talked too techie

And your next job is?

And your next job is?

Massaging the bosses ego, proving he made the right decision, buying the first round of drinks, etc. Then I might think about applying for the ceng cert but it's a bit worthless at my level.

I'm nearing the end of my 2nd week, still no pass or accounts but free coffee and clean toilets.
