started a new contract yesterday at an insurance firm in the city, which is due to last 6 months. have had the previous 3 and a half months off and i went to japan and i watched all the world cup. its only the last 6-7 weeks i had been applying to jobs and had not really had any calls back about anything, till last week, when this job came up and i accepted.
.....and then wouldn't you just fucking know it, but i got a call on friday to arrange an interview for this week, which i declined because i already accepted a contract, and then today, on my second day of work, i got 2 calls from seperate agents recruiting for roles at 2 city investment banks, one of which is supposed to be a really good firm. nothing for weeks and then as soon as you get something, people are calling you up for shit you aint even applied for. typical.
turned them all down. my current place is paying me good money and the work looks relatively stress free and easy. i like easy money. the days of me chasing big prestigious firms for my cv are over. i have been there and done that and have worked at plenty of them.
i dont want any shit. that is my criteria for any new roles from now on. pay me and dont get me involved in any shit. i dont want to be on-call, i dont want to work 16 hours on a saturday, i dont want to do all the crap that no one else in the department does not want to do, and am left to pick up shit.
this is a wonderful piece of music, from a disturbing film.
