    Persona Non Gratis!!

    Well today was my last day at my present employment - had a contract for one year!! And they are not replacing me - already they are in the shit - being short staffed - hehehe

    Anyway I was flat tack - get back from lunch - and they had cancelled my profile off the system completely!! Rang helpdesk and the silly tart says Oh I just deleted you = well considering I'm here until 7pm you had better "undelete me pronto" 4 hours later no can do!!! I did say maybe I should go now??!! No, eventually I signed on as someone else!!

    My supervisor said they normally take 3 months to action a delete request!!

    I start my new job tomorrow - have 2 days training out the Hutt so I can take my bike - yeeha!! I warned them. It was one of the first things the Chairman of the Board who interviewed me - brought up - now I hear you have a big bike!!

    Another lawyer had recommended me to this guy and I had to laugh how he described me - "The Personality". However my Supervisor assured me I was not a loud mouth - but that you could often hear my laughter and also the fact I guess I very rarely wear dark colours (make my own clothes) and I'm known for my interesting "shoes/heels". Also it's a bonus I know how to do my job!!

    Interesting tho - last year was the worst year of my life - and for the latter 3 months of the year nobody knew what I was going through, I had to be so disciplined and just focussed on work as they expect 110% then I'd go home and crash. Everything that could go wrong did - and with a vengeance - I look back and wonder how the hell I did it.

    Anyway I am very excited about my new job - more money than I asked for - less hours than above job - and it happened very quickly and smoothly which is a first for me. So I am extremely grateful.

    Also I am going away Thursday nite on my bike - and in my new job we have the Tuesday off as well - so I get to have a lovely long break.

    Happy Easter

    Don't need to hear about the shoes but good to hear you feel good about your new beginning.
    Change in job can be quite stressful but it sounds like you found a good spot to perch.

    A mouse-over of your bling squares says "BMW has a brilliant future". Sure looks like it!!
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Well done mate, looks like its time to reap the karma rewards from the shocker you had been having. Enjoy the new job

    Does this mean you won't be so bitchy? Good luck with the new job, and glad to hear something seems to be going well.

    ?? Only get real bitchy when I'm sex starved!!

    My first day at work was awesome - I reckon I have found my niche at last!
    My God there are some short men there - one poor guy literally stood back and craned his neck to look up at me - Geez I felt like an elephant!!

    Ride out there was great - ride back - very wet and greasy - and no wet weather gear!!

    And cos I was feelin so good - I walked into this really neat shop that had crystals, incense etc and body piercing!!! Cheap - So I got my belly button pierced! This time properly!!

    As I'm typing my mad maori mate is playing the guitar and we are singing - even in harmony!! Today I bought him some new strings for the guitar so he had no excuses!! He's a beautiful singer - I cannot in any way, be classed as a singer!! I broached the idea of whether I could get my piano out of storage - but I have 3 flights of stairs!!! He has lifted that piano many times on his own!! Sorry I'm off the subject. Our little concert is over and he's gone home.
