As the title says :(

Bit of a shame as it means I cant go out for drives etc as I dont know when my next paycheck is comming.

I have been applying for a few jobs and have had a couple of call backs and im shortlisted for a job atm. Its easily an hours drive there and back though which im not so keen on but the pay is nice as its 3-7k more then I was on.

If anyone knows of any decent IT jobs going in the sussex area let me know ;)

Thanks for the job adverts but im not really in the know with solaris.

I am more of a windows/networking geek. Cisco stuff is fine.

I'd swear that was the very project I'm on. Bluff your way through an interview by confusing the interviewer with long words like "marmalade" ;).

Join the club. Our yank bosses are shutting down our UK plant. We got told we're redundent back in 9 months ago. :( They're demolishing the factory around me as I type and guess what? I still don't have a termination date. :search: Can't wait to get the redundency cheque. It pays off the mortgage, BPU the supe and get a Speed Triple. . Cheer up, silver lining and all that bullshit.
