Job update

[luckykaa]

At last! I am now out of a job! This makes looking for a new one a hell of a lot easier. Anyone know of any openings for a games/3d programmer?

I wish everyone would stop reacting that it's the worst thing in the world when I tell them. It is not terrible news. It's a normal side effect of working in the games industry. If I'm still not employed after 5 months, then you can start worrying. Only issues right now are the lack of a P45 and the obligation to look for a new job.

Also discovered I can't organise a piss up. Planned one. Forgot to drink lots of alcohol. Maybe I need a brewery.

Yippee! then. I hope they gave you a nice chunk of redundancy pay like the last lot did :)

Question is: are you going to stay in London?

Thanks! That's the attitude I prefer.

Sadly The company is in administration or receivership or something. Management doesn't seem to be too sure which. The upshot is we don't get heaps of cash.

As for staying in London - I dunno. I quite like this place now, and moving is a hassle and a bit expensive. Plus this is a good location to work from. I can get to anywhere in London, half of Surrey and parts of Sussex in 30 minutes.

Try the 'no-one metions it or they die' approach. It stopped everyone - apart from one person - from discussing my redundancy with me.
