Brock Manson 0 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 A little stressed as the girlfriend is coming to stay for a few days and I need to go out and buy enough food for the two of us. She's vegetarian so trying to come up with some ideas for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3960 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 First class mood today. After a protracted 2 month recruitment process I have received and signed my offer from a a global bank which is worth and extra 50K a year. 3 months gardening leave here we come. Where are you going and have they got any IT jobs going? HSBC. I think they use external IT. My colleague has handed his notice in today - off to Lloyds - that takes my department down to 2. I might start looking seriously now or hold out until November when I'll have 7 years for redundancy purposes - however I'm a bit concerned all the cuts fallout will flood the market with job seekers so it might be best to go now.

Head hunters have been mad busy in my sector for the past few months and from what I can see there is a general drive on from a lot of the banks - even RBS are pushing.

Monkeys Fist 38585 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 It's a beautiful,crisp winter day, in one of the best cities in the world.
