Planning to hand my notice in tomorrow, with no job lined up. Good idea/bad idea?
Good idea- Been stuck there since June when I graduated, and I know from before that I never find a new job unless I absolutely HAVE to, like when I worked in the Moathouse for six months absolutely hating it. Went into all the reasons why I hate the job so I'll sum it up with IT'S PURE PISH I WANT OUT. I don't have as many outgoings at the minute and my dad gave me some money (I probably sound like a brat saying this but, he gave me money, I didn't ask for it, I'm not going to say no) so I'm not scraping the arse end of my overdraft like I normally am, and I'm due a few tax rebates etc which should help me during employment search.
Bad idea- It's extremely juvenile of me to go "I don't like this job so SEE YA" and potentially leave myself debt stricken in the near future, esp cos I've got stuff I want to do over the summer. Also, agency work which has been my main source of hope has apparently reported a 20% loss this quarter (fucking economic crisis) so I might end up right up shit creek.
Dunno.
In other news the weekend was mostly great. Watched Batman with my mum on Friday and has a blissfully argument free evening. Worked on Saturday and then lay about with Marc watching dvds all night, see also Sunday day, what it's all about. Had to work in Curlers on Sunday night which was AWFUL. Their air conditioning is fucked so I spent the whole night sweating like a fucking alsation in July, and some dickhead decided to ask me (Joker stylee I assume) "WHY YE SO SERIOUS AW EH TIME?!" (Answer- because YOU pissed me off.) But the good (not work) outweighed the bad (work) by a considerable margin so YEH.
Been reading bit more lately which is exciting, even if it is mostly fluff. Finished the second Belle Du Jour book, Further Adventures of a London Call Girl which actually isn't anywhere near as filth ridden as you might expect but is very funny. Also was given a Charlie Brooker book by Jamie from work which is also very funny and makes me feel better cos I could never hate anything THAT much. I've asked this before but I'll ask it again- any book suggestions throw them this way! Rather worryingly I asked my dad this question and he replied "A lovely book is Remember ME? by Sophie Kinsella" and I was thinking "Here, she sounds like a heavy shite chicklit writer" so I looked it up, and lo and behold I was right. I can only hope he was taking the piss and that his poor breathing hasn't made him so deranged that he's became a follower of the Richard and Judy book club.
