it has been two weeks since...

Well, I have now been unemployed for two weeks. It has been a fantastic lazy time. The time just flies when you are doing nothing. My days have been occupied with playing on my Mac, doing a bit of cleaning around the house, having a shower, and getting dinner ready for when Mrs McMuffin returns from work. In fact, the days do not seem long enough. I sometimes wonder how I ever managed to fit in working too. One, perhaps unsurprising, side effect of not working is that I have stopped getting headaches. I don't think I have had one for about three weeks. I have had one interview for a job. Fortunately, although I hate the rejection, they didn't want me. Their feedback was that I had given a good account of myself in the interview but I didn't have experience of managing multiple teams. Of course, they knew that before they interviewed me. During the interview they seemed to lose interest in me when I told them that I couldn't work on Fridays because I see my therapy clients then. Oh well, their loss. I have another interview tomorrow afternoon. It was supposed to be today, but the agency phoned this morning and rearranged things. I have never done this job before, but luckily my friend, Victoria Sponge, does the same job. I spent the afternoon with her yesterday gathering intelligence. I have spent today reading all sorts of legislation and guidances, just in case. While I was with Victoria Sponge, we used the opportunity for me to familiarise her with making posts on our blog.

I guess the thing that has taken up most of my time over the last few days has been designing a website for our new training company. It is a time consuming enterprise for sure, but it is nearly done. Nice and clean with a simple interface and clearly written info. I am quite pleased with it. However, I have done a version of the site that can be sent as a html email and there are a couple of errors that I cannot for the life of me work out how to fix. Oh, the irony, I am about to spam a whole load of companies that might be interested in the services that we are offering! I comfort myself with the thought that we are going to provide a really useful service to them, assuming they pay us lots of money, of course.

Mrs McMuffin will be pleased that I have posted. She is always on at me to post something. I really am more interested in setting it up and reading what she, and other people, have written.

I'll let you all know how I get on with my interview tomorrow.

By the way, Norah, there are still people here who need to know what is going on at work!
