Copious Free Time

[denny]

I've just been made redundant.

Some paperwork bullshit to occur over the next week or two before it's official, but the bomb's been dropped and in a company this small, the paperwork is just a formality.

Time to tidy up the CV I guess.


Edit:

People keep asking 'why?' on IRC/IM/etc...

The company failed to get as much funding as they'd hoped for in their current round of financing talks. In combination with a very noticeable drop in the amount of work they have coming in, it was belt-tightening time. They decided that my position was the most expensive thing that they can limp along without until the workload picks up again. I'm told I'll get a good reference etc.

Early signs are promising - quite a lot of interest from agencies and companies despite me not doing a lot to promote my availability to the world at large.

I'm hoping I can find something fast, but then delay starting for a few weeks - OG got quite stressful and I like the idea of having a short period to catch my breath (and sort out a few things around the flat) before I get back to the grind.

Fast find, delay start sounds perfect...I can well imagine a little breathing space would go along way! Fingers crossed something ideal comes along very soon for you! :)
