It’s looking less and less likely that I will find a more suitable job by the end of this year. Our council has just laid off hundreds of jobs and sad fact there just don’t seem to be any positions out there in my local area that fit in with what I want. Maybe I’m being too picky but the whole point of wanting to leave my current position is because I’m not satisfied. I don’t want to get another job just for the sake of it, I want to get another job because it will suit me.
There’s a temporary promotion available while one of my colleagues is off on maternity leave. Not my cup of tea, and I don’t want to be tied in if something better does happen to come along. I have considered taking up a second job maybe in the evenings or weekends but time is precious and I don’t want to be working round the clock.
