I'm employed!
 

The wait is over! Working as a contractor with an energy company until the end of the year on a big project, starting on Wednesday or Thursday, getting details through tomorrow! I had a meeting at the job centre today about signing on which means I was on the dole for... 3 hours! :laugh: Aaahh!!

Yey! you can celebrate by kicking that plank out of your house :cheer2: #newpositivevibe

well done enjoy the experience and the money in biZZANK

..and this..I'm so pleased for you Greg..really well done..:love:..I know this has all been a huge uncertain and scary time for you and you must have felt pretty low...but now comes the good stuff to balance that out...believe in yourself because there are a lot of people who believe in you...so, celebration drinks for all of us on payday, eh..?..

Thanks everyone :) first day tomorrow! I went and got myself a bit of a "work wardrobe" today, spent so much money... but I'm excited about it all! Kinda worried about how long it'll take me to get there in the morning and finding the place more than starting the job to be honest, I'm scared I'll end up running late because I'll get lost - gotta change trains etc which I've never really done in Glasgow before.. aahh, wish me luck!

good luck. Just this one time wake up extra extra earlier. even if by your calculations you think you'll have 45 mins-1 hour to spare.

Yeah that's the plan :laugh: would rather be ridiculously early than even a minute late, I'd be so flustered!
