get a permanent Job

I like temping and have always done so, mainly because I get bored in jobs and if they are permanent I have the “oh my god this is my life for ever” syndrome. I like seeing and learning new and different things, meeting different people (and avoiding others). But my partner is sick of me temping (I dont know why as it pays more than permanent work where I live) and says I need to grow up and get a permanent job. I guess if I do that, it will a stable thing in my life and I can perhaps look outside of work to find “different things”.... which I rarely do.

Self is the newest security/safety steward for Rock Steady events management, oh yeah..

many resumes sent, 2 interviews today, 2 more next week.

Two interviews this week although not in my field. But potentially cool. Yikes!

On friday I finally got to talk with my boss about the terms of my contract, and as soon as the temp agency let me go of my contract with them I am a full-time employee of Acta Asset Management :)

Got an offer last week, gonna accept it on wednesday :)

I enjoy being a temp, I really do. I like the flexibility. I like the excitement of having a new job every so often. I like the opportunities to see how different companies/departments work. I like the experiences I’m gaining. On the other hand, it’s hard to not have stability.

Got offered a great job!!!

Hooray :-)

This is turning out to be a frustrating process. People promise to come back to you and don’t. I feel like I’m juggling several balls in the air at the moment. I seem to be writing presentation after presentation – I wish they all would give me the same brief!

Watch this space.

I’m pretty happy being a contractor … but I want to buy a place to live (see goal 1) and therefore having a permanent role would make getting a mortgage an easier task.

I’m in the running for a couple of peachy jobs at the moment so fingers crossed.
