Desperate Times
Stranded in a hotel in an African war zone with no internet access for two weeks, I was forced to resort to desperate measures. Possessing only my passport and the clothes I stood up in; and the warning "You can catch it shaking hands with a vicar out there" ringing in my ears, I had to draw my own porn in order to preserve my sanity.
Alas, it all came out looking like Coronation Street's Audrey Roberts, but, as they say, any port in a storm.
What have you done in times of great desperation?

Same situation here
Got told last week that my job role was at risk, had to basically re-apply for it today with an interview to 2 of my managers, but with enough changes to the position that i know i havent a cat in hell's chance of getting it.
also did a 45 min presentation to the management team as to why my current job should be kept within the company rather than outsourcing it.
it's a fucker, especially at this time of year with 2 kids (youngest has her birthday on xmas eve as well).
Good luck mate though - everything happens for a reason. just try and take whatever positives you can (and if u are like me, then whatever stationery you can steal on a daily basis ;0) )
