So, I've been working as a temp at this place since last June. Last November an e-mail came around advertising permanent jobs. I filled out an application form and handed it in. I get a letter saying the interviews will be the beginning of December. And then I get another letter saying they've been moved back to the beginning of January. I eventually had an interview on Wednesday. "We'll tell you on Monday," they say. And then they start taking people away to tell them today. First person comes back - didn't get it. Second person comes back - didn't get it. Third person comes back crying. The three of us in our section who went for permanent jobs are now all eyeing each other. The boss comes and takes V away. V comes back, but has been sworn to secrecy over whether or not he got the job. M then gets taken away. She comes back and it's my turn.

Anyway, to cut a long story short (too late *grin*), I am now no longer a temp!

At least I won't be a temp starting from April 1st, which is when the permanent contract kicks in. And V and M both got the positions, as well :-)

I'm still doing the job I'm doing, only it's better pay, sick pay and more holidays.

Personally, I think they hired us because we're too damn fabulous to let go *grin*

Great news!

Many congratulations and all that.

More holidays...mmm...

Re: Great news!

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

*grin* What went through my mind was 'Ooh, holidays', and then 'oooh, pre-ordering Firefly' ;-)

Re: Great news!

[mandragora1.livejournal.com]

'oooh, pre-ordering Firefly' ;-)

*g* Thus showing your excellent taste. Although, if you've got an all-regions DVD player you can order Firefly straight away from Amazon.ca...

Unfortunately, it's only a region 2 :-( I keep eyeing the multi-region ones and thinking 'hmmm, first three seasons of OZ...'

Re: Great news!

[mandragora1.livejournal.com]

It might be crackable, though. Have you tried going online and searching for the code for your particular model? Cracking it invalidates any warranty, but DVD players are so cheap to buy nowadays it's probably worth a try, especially if the warranty is almost up in any event.

Re: Great news!

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

I know most are, I just never actually thought of looking for a code for mine. I'll put it down to a moron moment on my part *grin*

Congratulations!

[xandutch.livejournal.com]

Well done! I'm very happy for you. Also slightly jealous. ;P And I have to agree, and you must have very good bosses that they were able to recognize the faboulesness of you.

Re: Congratulations!

[xandutch.livejournal.com]

Ouch. 'fabulousness'. I'm just too damn tired.
