Default I GOT A NEW JOB TOO.........

Having read Faye's post about getting her new job with Toyota Finance, I was so pleased for her, and that everything worked out.

And it was a great day for me too..... after leaving P&O Shipping after 14 years of working on Cruise Ships, and deciding that I really did need to get a life, and stop the roller coaster........was harder than I thought. And after two and a half months of job searching and being offered jobs with apprentice scale salaries, I really was starting to think maybe I'd made a stupid move...........But today all that changed.

Interview number three paid off, and today I was offered the position of Southampton Cruise Ship Terminal Customer Service Manager.......Sensible Salary, Great Working Environment, and the opportunity to again meet up with some old friends I used to work with on the ships every time they dock in Southampton.

Feeling the best I've felt for months, after a really crap end to last year.

Really was getting close to running out of money and with a mortgage to pay, that ain't good. So now the cossie is no longer being considered for sale, and I can actually afford to tax it at the end of the month.....
