Job update
In short, I applied for two jobs in the restructure. Didn't get the first (unsurprising, I mentioned before I got the feeling they weren't planning on giving me anything that was available in round one and sure enough one of the managers let slip they didn't even expect me to apply) although they were apparently very impressed with my application. Got the second... then realised it's really not what I want to do at all. It was just... wrong. Gut-feeling wrong. And I could come up with several semi-logical and a few locigal reasons not to accept. So I declined it.
So I continue to back fill this lady who's on maternity leave. I have a contract in the marketing team until June. After which... who knows! I could be unemployed.
Ah well, I need to get out of here. Now I have a deadline by which I must find something else.
My new office is kind of cruddy. Small, no windows, on a major thoroughfare near the bathrooms and kitchenette. I don't even have a proper desk, just two tables shoved together in a corner. Except the office doesn't have any right-angle corners so I keep shifting the desks trying to pick which one I want parrel to the wall and which I want to stick half a meter out into the room. They're not even the same height! Ah well. I worked out I have less then five working weeks until my contract ends. Just under two weeks til Easter, then I'm away for two weeks (Easter break plus trip to Malaysia) then three weeks and I'm out of here.
