after such a rush i’ve finished running around, packed up, done as many mini farewells as i could squeeze, dropped off as many farewell gifts as i could, moved some initial stuff over and it’s like i’ve hardly had time for any of it to sink in much. before you know it it’s goodbye and hello all at once.
my email was switched before i started but now i don’t have access into my computer because i haven’t been given the passwords yet. i already have a build-up of outstanding emails plus i’ve been handed work today… while on induction. and i still have old loose ends to tie up too.
it’s only day 2. welcome to the new world.
it’s gonna be a very interesting time. and expensive too i gather.
curiously enough, i’ve been asked by the other side if i might consider joining them. unfortunate that times are bad and there’s a hiring freeze. nice enough for one of them to say that that wouldn’t matter; they’d surely be able to work something out. i hope he’s kidding, it’d just be too tempting. just as sweet was someone else who revealed that i had “done well” on my test and that was a rarity — usually it’s a mere pass/fail result which comes back.
for now though it’s gonna be as much food and sleep as i can instead. lots of busy-ness elsewhere. and apparently an empty jubilee hall costs $4300 for a few hours. so much for shooting there.
