It’s All GO!

Ok, so after after a short break over Christmas, I though I’d better pull my socks up and start looking for a new contract. As everyone returned to work on the 5th of Jan, I wasn’t expecting anywhere near the response I got after posting my CV online! Either my C.V. is absolutely amazing or the IT market is ridiculously understaffed! I’d like to think it was the former, but I suspect it’s the latter! Just over 3 days into the first week and I was getting over 25 calls a day. by Thursday I’m signed up for a 6 month contract in Bradford!

Since trying to get to Bradford by car would be a real PITA , I’ve opted for a more comfortable commute and gone by train. So not only can I get a good hour and half of work done I can actually blog more often too 🙂 Finally might get a chance to write as many articles as I keep promising!

I did buy a nice little T-Mobile internet dongle too, so I can be connected whilst travelling – T-Mobile seemed like to best deal because of their usage policy. If you happen to go over their limits, there’s no real penalty. Unlike all the other operators which charge over £1 a megabyte! £1 a megabyte! That’s totally ridiculous! If I accidentally went over my limit and watched a day of youtube videos (well ok, you’d have to be pretty brain dead to watch *anything* on youtube) I could end up with a bill of over £1000! . Anyway. after a few days of email / blogging and googling, I’ll post an update on how long my usage cap is likely to last!
