MiketheBike Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 why? You must have been seriously not happy where you were working...or you just have too much money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Sorry to hear that Joris, but Jack must be paying you well to do all the work on here :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Well unfortunantly not on both accounts but I'm moving 60km south in a few weeks to Veghel. My current boss said he had no work for me there but there are plenty of companies that do. So I told him I'm leaving... 0 I'm a system administrator with plenty of experience and a lot of certificates so I'm hoping finding a job won't be too hard.. :computerterror: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmite!! Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Could you not commute... 60km is just round the corner :dunno: I travel just 3 hours/140 miles just taking my Boy to school & back everyday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapper Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Good luck Joris. You are a genius, so there is no doubt in my mind you'll be employed in no time. Best wishes, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markheliops Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Arse - Look on the bright side Joris. One door closes - another opens. Could be the best thing you've done this year. I'm sure it will turn out okay. Markheliops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 Could you not commute... 60km is just round the corner :dunno: I travel just 3 hours/140 miles just taking my Boy to school & back everyday... Sure I can, I already commute 55km each way every day and since I'm moving 60km further away.. Also I have to drive up and down one of the most traffic infested motorways. A 2 hour drive each way would be standard, add a 8,5h work day to it and it becomes rediculous. Also I work for a contractor (Getronics) and they should be able to find a new place for me. They say they have nothing in the area where I'm going to live but there are plenty of companies that do. Why commute for hours each day if I can work just around the corner? Sounds like a logical conclusion to me... @Snapper Thanx! @ MarkHeliops, I feel that way too, that it might be the best thing I've done this year.

ArtistsRifles Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Good luck with the interviews annd job hunting Joris. Busy here trying to rewrite my CV to get another job now I've been retired.

Joris Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Thanks! So far the job hunting goes so fast it's hard to keep up. I've already got a contract offered and am waiting for another company to make an offer (or not). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Mayhem Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Joris, can I just add my good wishes, and hope that you will find well paid work soon. But if all else fails, have you ever thought about self-employment? Best move I ever made, the only drawback though is, if I want a holiday, I have to look in the dictionary to see what it means. :rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
