regarding this

it looks like i'll be no longer employed in a few days. in meantime i am on "gardening leave".

i'd better start updating my CV then.

unfortunately i don't have a garden. although i have been considering buying a pot plant. on the plus side it does mean I get to watch Bargain Hunt more often for a while!

Put in a CV to ZEDA up in Nottingham, see what they say. In fact, a couple of days' commuting up to Notty and talking to pimps (SP? Recruitment agents?) is probably more productive than sifting the jobs market in Leicester.

I wouldn't think that Brum - even directly over New Street Station - is do-able as a commute these days.

And the time to start is now. Walking out before your notice is up, straight into a new office, is waay better than job-hunting when you're not in a job. Apparently the disloyal are desirable potential hires, and the unemployed are unemployable.

It always seemed rather absurd that it takes very nearly as long to get to Brum by train as it does to St Pancras. But then it's also a lot cheaper. Possibly things may change with the integrated East Midlands franchise.
