Labour Day

Interesting how to celebrate Labour Day those in labour don't do any labour.

Today was my first day as a full-time employee.

That's right.

I've taken a permanent job.

Well, it's the same job that I was doing yesterday, as a freelancer, but now with less money.

But a few benefits.

Like being paid on a public holiday which today is in Germany.

Permanent jobs. Oh, these days that's as believable as a Zimbabwean election result.

So, now is the time to get my job hunting act together.

The time to look for a job is when you are in a job.

So, I'm going to start taking networking more seriously again.

And updating this blog.

OK, I'm happy where I am and things are going well (not least as they asked me to go permanent) but in the fickle world of work it makes sense to be paranoid.

Should, or when, this job comes to an end, for whatever reason, I want to be ready.
