Hello LJ, I know you probably haven't noticed I've not been posting until I actually post this, but things have been a little up and down lately. There was a point when work was very very down, but just this last week it's become incredibly awesome.

In short:

• I have been moved out of the group I was care-taking and am now doing the work I've been ( Read more... )

Got a rental place! Did not get the job!

Overall, it worked out pretty well, I'd say. I spent Saturday morning visiting four different places and basically fired off applications on Tuesday morning (Monday was a public holiday). And we got a call back on Wednesday!

We sign on Tuesday, and then we can think about moving in. I may end up taking a day ( Read more... )

Work has been pretty busy the past few weeks. Did I tell you we had another resignation? We had another resignation, and of course it's the coordinator whose spot I was 'temporarily' filling in while he was on secondment, so thanks, other coordinator. Much appreciated ( Read more... )

I am back in Melbourne, back living at home and commuting to the Melbourne office of Wolfram & Hart every day ( Read more... )

I've always had a lot of emails sent to me, but as work gets busier I'm getting copied into a lot of emails and sometimes I have no idea why.

Currently, I'm seeing emails like this -

From: Canberra BD boss
To: Partner 1, Partner 2
CC: Lonecow, Tenders manager
Date: Today
Subject: Something something

Body: Partners, we'll look in to the credentials you ( Read more... )

I've finally had official news that I'll be offered a promotion to coordinator position next year at Wolfram & Hart. Considering my graduate contract was due to expire at the end of December, I figured it was time to start looking for other positions (tally so far - six applications, three rejections. Still waiting on the other three).

I'm probably ( Read more... )

There's not a lot that I'm doing at work at the moment that I can say is really fascinating, or challenging, but there is one thing I've really enjoyed: creating a margin analysis calculator.

For example, say a government department says "Wolfram & Hart! We have X project, tell us how you'll do the work, who'll do it and how much it will cost us!" ( Read more... )

A brief update -

I am in Canberra. Rex is here. My sister is here. I know other people here. Socially, being in Canberra is pretty great. Work-wise, I feel like I've reverted right back to my first rotation in 2010.

I'm doing almost exactly the same sorts of small, disconnected, rote tasks that I've done before, and I'm struggling. I'm too ( Read more... )

So, how've you been LJ? It's been a while, and some new things have developed since we last talked ( Read more... )

I think I am not going to be successful in my Spartan Resolution.

Work is going to have a ball, on the Saturday after my last day. Initially I had thought I wouldn't go, but thinking about it has made me realise that I would probably regret it. I have a team who are very friendly and I will miss them when I go - I would like to take the opportunity ( Read more... )
