Changed my life..didn't really mean to..
Moved from my country of origin.. Was working 3 jobs at the time, none of them were jobs I could see myself in on a long term basis..

By pure chance I met an old friend at a new years party..hadn't seen him for about 6months but wasn't really sure why..

Conversation went some thing along the lines of..
--blurry lines, drinks had been consumed--

Him: Hey, you like computers dont you?
Me: Yeah, I guess - they're alright
Him: Why dont you apply for this job that I know is coming up in about a months time..It's in Ireland (Not where I'm from) - You might just get it.
Me: Sure I'll send you my cv.

2 Months Later.. I had a rucksack, an overpriced and TINY bedroom on the outskirts of Dublin..But more importantly I had what I'd at the time considered a proper job (Technical Support).

I thought to myself.. I can do this, six months... then it's on to Uni back home.

That's now about.. 8 years a go - and I've just married the Girl (now woman) that Interviewed me at my very first job here in Ireland..

Fantastic...

Uni? What was I thinking..
