New Job!

Martian Tom

Earlier on, I spoke about its being Winter Solstice, and the return of the light after today...

I hadn't heard anything about the job I got interviewed for on Monday - working at a local FE College, with PMLD.  I was told I'd hear by the end of the week, but had almost given up by today.

I had a doze this afternoon (still sleeping badly at night) and woke up at 4 to see it already creeping up dark outside my bedroom window.  I felt suitably despondent.

Then my phone rang.  It was them to offer me the job, subject to references!

Whew!  I feel a huge sense of relief now.  Maybe there is some light there after all!

References should be fine, so hopefully I'll be in by mid-January.

I can relax a bit now.

  • Fantastic news! So pleased you have the opportunity to work somewhere where your skills and experience will be appreciated. Now you know you are leaving everything will be like water off a duck's back!  What a lovely start to the New Year this will be.

    Given what I know about narcissists your attack dog may try to have a final go at you (one of mine did). Perhaps you can ask for the fact you are leaving to be kept confidential from her? Unless there's a reason that she has to know of course. 

    Well done for keeping your head held high and finding a positive way out of an impossible situation.
