got called about a couple more jobs that sound like they might be better than the one i accepted already, and i don't mean just financially either. the agents asked my availability and i said i was ready to rock'n'roll anytime. they seemed pretty confident that i would get called in for interview next week sometime but agents can be full of shit so we shall see how it goes. am supposed to start my new job next week so will have to try and sort something out if i need to take an hour out for an interview. the 'i have an exam booked' is always a good excuse to use.
a couple of years ago i turned down a job out of a sense of loyalty to the company i worked for at the time and i ended up regretting it about a month later. i promised myself that i would not make the same mistake again and if need be i will do whatever needs to be done and i really won't feel too bad walking out of a job for something better.
these 2 new jobs are both vmware roles and i know that i would not be getting put forward for these roles had i not spent over 2 grand of my own money on doing the course and exam. it pays to invest in yourself.
at least i have the job at the german bank in the bag and i can do it till the end of the year at least, and you never know, maybe i might get something better in the meantime.
