Posted: Wed, 29th Mar 2017 17:58 Post subject: Some attention-whore got herself a new job... |
|
 |
Today I signed a employment contract and I will beginn working again from 1st April.
I left IBM pretty much exactly half a year ago and I enjoyed myself til the end of 2016,
only taking care of private business, like some family obligations and buying my own car and making up for unused vacation and stuff like that.
It wasn't until January this year when I started actively writing job applications and having interviews and such.
I also lost 17kg thanks to Pumpy's recommendation to try out the Ketogenic diet.
Now I got a perfectly comfortable job in contrast to my constant traveling with IBM,
my company's location is 6km away from home (10min drive), though I can work homeoffice mostly (3/5 days)
and I will typically have to visist the customer (some "car manufacturer" from Stuttgart, idk ) about once a week only in-house.
So work-life-balance wise I got a better deal compared to previously and I also get A METRIC SHIT TONNE more monies than previously. More than Pumpy!
My job description is Technical Consultant for eBusiness Applications.
But essentially I will be fulfilling the exact same task as previously, with the difference that now I'm directly responsible for the service.
You are now allowed to wish me congrats, good luck and a good start.
Yours sincerely,
your favorite attention-whore of the forum.

At least these 6 cyl BMWs sound really good, if you like a bit of engine roar... It's not a bad choice at all!
About fuel, I guess you don't even use it that much to justify a more economic car, and a new one would cost tons more than the extra gas...
Anyway best of luck with the new job, hope you like it.

never got the point of the e-fag thing. I guess I'd have to be a nicotine addict to understand?
I smoke real cigarettes maybe once a month, or less, whenever I drink with some friends who smoke too much. Tried the electronic shit once, it seemed even more pointless than the regular one...

In all honesty: just a silly tease anyway.
I'd advice anyone to stay as long as it makes sense/possible to do so. First two years that I worked I still lived at home you'll save a whole lot that way and it will benefit you later in life. Plus... best food you'll ever eat.

He is as experienced at smoking as he is at playing Tavla
