I lurk about on b3ta
hoping that someone will talk to me.

Tonight I'm drinking, and watching a film. And playing on b3ta, obviously.

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 21:21, Reply)

1408. John Cusack, Samuel L Jackson, Stephen King.
Saw Watchmen last night. It was good, but missed out a big chunk of the book.

I am hot, and dehydrated, I'm grungy, and I'm bored. *sigh*

not sure about the boredom, either, perhaps add danger to the something cold by adding Pihranas

I'm waiting for Blousie to add the Pier trip to the B3ta calendar.
I hope she'll add the words, 'Jeff will be taking the ladies of OT up the promenade'

I somehow doubt she will though.

I'm so excited, Jeff.
I've never been taken up the promenade before.

I grew up 15 miles from Blackpool - of course I've been taken up the Promenade before.

So does that mean you'll take up the offer for a chip supper but reserve the right to say 'no' ?
SOOOO UNFAIR.

Have you ever been taken up the OXO tower? I think that would be quite nice.

( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 21:26, Reply)

I haven't. Isn't there a restaurant at the top of there?

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Sat 16 Jul 2011, 21:28, Reply)

One of the most devine resturants in london, apparently, I've never had someone to go up the oxo tower with so I don't know.

If you end up covered in seagull shit after anal
you're either a) doing it wrong or b) a lot kinkier than I am.

Had an interview for a job I don't actually want
it went ok, but I doubt I've got the job, and I'm not overly fussed by it. Have applied for several things I like the look of very much and should hopefully hear back soon. I'm feeling less doom-and-gloomy about it most of the time, but it comes in phases if you know what I mean.
(berk, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 21:54, Reply)

What job were you interviewed for, and would it mean relocating?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 21:57, Reply)

Another technician job, in South London
I had thought it'd be ok to commute, but it took over an hour to get from Marylebone to the institute and that was in the middle of the day - imagine how much worse it'd be in rush hour. So I'd have to move to south London, and I just don't fancy it tbh. Some of the institutes in north London would be ok, that are only a few tube stops or walkable from Marylebone, and I could live in Leamington adn commute in...it'd be hard, but if it's all I'm offered I'll take it. But I'd rather stay in the area, there's good stuff coming up at Oxford, and one job in Warwick and another in Birmingham. Fingers crossed...
(berk, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:00, Reply)

Well if you do have to change to a job you'd rather not do, just remember that you've not signed up for life
You can change jobs again after 6 months if needs be.

So don't fret too much.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:05, Reply)

No, you sign a contract for however long the funding is for
it's not the done thing to leave midway through as it screws up funding and continuity in the lab, and it would look very bad on my CV.
(berk, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:07, Reply)

I'm only really familiar with commercial sectors. Consider my 'helpful' comment retracted.
What locations, if you had to move, would you consider?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:08, Reply)

If location/TC wasn't an issue
then I'd move anywhere, really. Manchester, Bristol, Cambridge and London particularly.
(berk, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:11, Reply)

I'm guessing you couldn't move and for TC to follow you down later?
I'd imagine there are more Tennis opportunities in London.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:12, Reply)

No, it was mentioned
and I think he'd like to move to London for a few years...but he's just bought a flat here, and a lot of what he does is self-employed, and if he were to move he'd have to build all of that up again. So unless he were headhunted for a particular club, a move isn't really financially feasible.
(berk, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:13, Reply)

I'm sure you're both considering all of the best options
I hope you get the right role in the right location and everything if good.

When is your last day in your current role likely to be?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sat 16 Jul 2011, 22:21, Reply)

30th September, as it currently stands
which is why I might have issues with the pierbash - it's not really the done thing to take ones last day off as annual leave, is it?

the exhibition is down to me to organise and I've still not contacted the place *adds to task list*. The Amazon thing I might not hear about for a while. At some point I should get a letter, then it's all about replying as soon as I can and hoping I get in first.
