Shitheads
Okay, so I'm running out of time here, so I'll keep this short.
Got home yesterday to find the grille on my bedroom window unscrewed and off to the side, the front door kicked in, my bedroom, the living room and the kitchen trashed, the back door wide open and a very large hole in the window next to it.
Laptop's been taken. Life without internet access at home suddenly seems pointless and meaningless.
Also an 11-year old digital camera, which hasn't worked in years, and my cheap discman. All that mess they created for a few bits of technology suffering from near-death experiences.
And I gotta go back there in a few minutes.

Bad Penny
Too late to write anything imaginative, so here's a text I sent Matt earlier (I'd originally planned to mass-send it, but my thumb pleaded laziness):
i'm definitely a bad penny. got my old job back at rssb, starting mon, another possible interview back at lewisham. this is taking pigeonholing too far ;)
Given I've worked for four places in the last two and a half years, I've so far had two phone calls about working in my old team in the first one, three interviews for my old job in the second one, a phone call about temping with the team I used to sit with and loathe (and be loathed by) in the third, and today, a phone call from the woman I used to work for in the fourth.
And to think they say that the IT industry is picking up... !
