Default New job!

As a few of you may know, I've been working at Argos as a temporary delivery assistant over the Christmas period.
Well, I was offered a permanent contract on Thursday, which I accepted
The only downside is, I've had to hand my notice in at the campsite where I worked through the summer as the two jobs wouldn't work together

I started at Argos a couple of years ago and Derek, (Windrush), was one of the first to congratulate me and wished me good luck for them keeping me on permanently. Well Derek, your wishes worked for me, just wish you were here to read this

Congratulations Paul - shame about the campsite, but the all year round Argos contract is too good to ignore

Great news Paul.
I always felt real satisfaction when in a long term job. Being honest Sony was the best job I ever had, didn't like the daily commute and eventually moved back to a local job with Currys as an instore engineer, it only lasted 3 years as they ditched the idea, 5 years self employment was great but it all went NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- up after doing Industrial cleaning equipment servicing.
Good luck and enjoy.
