Life at the GSC

Ok, well I have found a place to live and it may be old and smell of strange people but it's now my home (sigh). Finally got my work uniform today so feel like an actual staff member now but they still don't have my bank account details or anything else so I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to get paid....

Workwise, it's pretty similar to Q except they've instigated a 'learning module' policy which means I have to prove I can do everything I've been doing for the past three years. It's a bit like being sent back to square one, which I guess is what happens when you're starting a new job anywhere. Hopefully I'll get to do a bit of Outreach work as well which would be really nice.

Umm, what else? I'm off to do a tour of the Highlands on Sunday which should be nice. And the IMAX theatre at work is showing Harry Potter in 3D so I'll get free tickets if anyone wants them (yes, I've resorted to bribing people to be friends with me :o)

I'm also on Facebook but there isn't much I can do with that until I get broadband connected in my place. It's a-coming.

Later peoples, the library shuts soon and I'll be kicked out :o( Love you long time

Free tickets to Harry Potter in 3D.
That's almost worth the airfare

Well, actually it would cost a pound because its a full length film so there's a premium...

Guess that puts it out of your budget now :o(

Oh by the way happy 26th B'day you old person. I should really get over there before I'm that old and have to pay full price at all the tourist stuff.
