Cheers guys,

Yeah I think it will go well, the role is essentially what I am doing just now but a band up. Basically I will be getting recognition for what I am doing and means I can go to the next banding quicker.

Got to keep your eyes on the horizon :datass:

Tis looking like my first day at my new place will be middle of January, not done notice yet as am waiting for a unconditional offer but am closed employment refs should be end of the week (current boss is cool with doing them pre notice and shiz)

Apparently I'll get an employment contract today to review and stuff which is nice.

Not used to all this well organised process. Took ages to get a contract when in the NHS.

Got a position on the NHS staff bank. It's not full time but will pay more for weekend shifts and help me move back into general. With training and start up I've already got 6 paid shifts to cash in by January and then we'll be rolling.

Which only leave 6 months to work/save like strawberry float for Japan.

Horrible feeling every time the phone goes or you receive an email :dread:.

I'm transferring in the New Year and I swear this three and a half weeks cannot go quickly enough. I'm eventually being replaced by two people and they are in for one hell of a shock.

Employment references have all gone in now for the new job, so just need the company to finish their other checks and things and I should get my unconditional offer in the next few days, then I can hand in notice and tell everyone in the office I'm up and out of this bitch.

I think I am going to be a day or so over my holiday allowence which is a bugger but knowing what work is like I will get the money regardless as working out what I owe etc. would mean talking to the accountant and the boss doesn't like doing that.

That's a quick progression mate. Hope you get it. It sounds like you deserve it. Good luck.

Surely the interview should go backwards so you can ask, "Please tell me about what this job is."

"It should be common sense to just accept the message Nintendo are sending out through their actions."

Had the interview, think it went well. Other two people think the same so I guess we'll find out!
