Bittersweet Me

My Dear Princess and Dear Friends,

A much quieter day today. I worked from home and recovered a little bit.

My legs are sore after all that walking. So are Caro's. But on the plus side, she did really well and her RA didn't trouble her too much despite long (and difficult) walks. 

Agencies are going bonkers at the moment. There is so much work around. A very different story from last time I was looking for a contract at the end of 2020 when I had literally just one interview before Project Gromit saved the day by keeping me at Kainga Ora.

This week I have FIVE. 

AND Kainga Ora are making noises that they might want to keep me around as well. Maybe working part-time with Corrie and her reduced crew when Project Gromit closes.

It's a dilemma. Made harder by having the PERFECT interview today with a lovely woman named Carissa from the Ministry of Education. I really didn't want to like her or her stupid stupid job but she said all of the right things and we clicked right away. 

She put in a job offer within 5 minutes of the end of the interview. Goddammit. 

I'm such a whiner. What a nice problem to have. 

Anyway. I need to make a decision by this time next week. 

Watch this space.

S.

p.s. I have discovered sour beers in a big way. I notice most men are all, "Bah! I only drink IPA!" etc etc. But I like them even if they are "girl beers" as one fellow put it.
