Finally after 7 months of unemployment and starvation, I managed to get offered 2 jobs in the one weeks. Both are part time, so I've accepted both. Funnily, they are both doing the same thing, merchandising for a large hardware chain. It will be so nice to eat food again!

Stitch, I totally relate! I work freelance and from May last year to May this year there was nothing going on!
Now pick up a phone and order a pizza - you've earned it!

I would say congrats and I'm sure it helps the finances, but doesn't getting a job puts a damper on your 80's movie watching experience?
In all seriousness, I'm excited for you!

So you are on the improve, Stich? Good on you.
Here is to you relishing your two new jobs.

Thanks for the warm words guys. The funny thing is, I've now been offered a 3rd job, this one is full time so I'm going to have to end up the part time ones at xmas. My new fulltime job is going to be a challenge. I will be working as an employment consultant for a company that finds work for people with disabilities and injuries. I think it should be pretty fullfilling. There is some travel involved every couple of weeks, but the main office is only a 10 minute walk from home. And best of all - I get a phone, a laptop and my own office!
