mathew Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 As some of you know i was made redundant the end of last year. At the time i wasnt so worried as i had savings behind me. However being off work for 3 months and seeing those savings going down with nothing coming in isnt a nice feeling. I was kinda stuck as to what to do or try to do in regards to work until out of the blue a couple of weeks back i had a phone call off an old work colleague/manager who was also made redundant but was lucky enough to have a new job a week later. His new role had him in quite a senior position and a job had come up where he recommended me. Sent in my CV last week and just had the call a few minutes ago saying that i can start as soon as possible! Il be working as a freelance assistant site manager under my old boss. So next tuesday i pack up and leave sunny wales for Torquay!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
