JOB JOB JOB!

Once again, I am writing to say that I got a JOB JOB JOB! Woo-hoo! I left my pseudo-Job that I had from mid October to Feb. 4. When I call it a pseudo-job it is because of the following reasons:

1. It began as a temporary assignment to fill in for the preceding temp who'd called it one morn, saying she'd "had it with the GM and wouldn't be back," who had been filling in for the accountant who was on maternity leave. It wasn't even supposed to have led to a permanant position.

2. After I worked my arse off brown nosing (yes, post-partum depression owing to unemployment has led to my becoming a brown noser to get work) to get this job, I realized that they were going to have even More Layoffs and the chances of me getting axed was fairly high. The company wasn't doing well and I knew it from looking at the accounts and having to uber-plan for payroll AND FROM GETTING MEAN AND NASTY CALLS FROM OTHER COMPANIES' ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE DEPARTMENTS WAITING FOR THEIR PAYMENT(S).

So on Jan 7 I received a call that a hefty high powered oil and gas company was looking for contractors, so by the time I jumped ship on Feb 4 and started at this uber-amazing oil and gas company on Feb 7, I was totally psyched.

And I have been ever since. It is an amazing experience. I am thoroughly enjoying my job for the second time in my life. (The first job I enjoyed was a telecom company when I was a property accountant.) I did not think that I would ever like my job again, but I do. It really adds value to my life. I have not given myself time or energy to write much, but I am hoping this blog post will spiral me into writing more again soon.
