Good news everybody … after the second interview I had today with the Senior Accountant and one of the other ladies in the team I’ve been offered the job. I’m waiting on contract information to come through tomorrow before I formally accept.
@sumudu Yeah, that’s like me too at the moment. Haven’t worked since April but I hope that’s about to change.

@sumudu I can work from home but not permanently. It’ll be work from home for a week, work in the office the next week etc. I’m ok with that, it’s minimal exposure to the world.

@matigo yeah, it’ll be nice. It’s a week on week off work from home situation too, which I’m happy about. Just means I have to wear a mask on the train and socially distance myself from people. I prefer to sit on my own on the train anyway.
So I had a Zoom interview for an Accounts Officer role today. It’s a 12 month contract through the company and not through the agency, which will be a welcome change. I’ll get all the creature comforts of flex days and annual leave again. I hope to find out the outcome by the end of the week.
@joeo10 sad news indeed. I spoke to Dad just before and he’s lost. He said it feels weird and doesn’t know what to do next. I’m taking him out for lunch on Friday so that will hopefully make him feel a bit more at ease.
Tonight we say farewell to another four-legged friend. You’ve been Dad’s shadow for the last 15 years and even though you’ve had the toughest battle for the last 6 months, we’re all grateful for the extra time we got to have with you. It was tough to say goodbye but we know you’ll be in a better place.
RIP Molly. Say hi to Lily, Hamish, Basil and the rest of the gang.
Each day I seem to have small wins with this PC I'm trying to rebuild so I can ultimately sell it.
- I got rid of the having to press F1 to get the thing started
- Restarted Windows Time so the date and time would sync properly
- Found out the USB ports weren't dead at all and managed to get it showing up in File Explorer again.
I'm feeling ok with progress so far.
