Back at work this Monday after the Christmas holidays and - even though the college term hasn't started yet - tasks are already stacking up!  The only time I can say I'm bored is during the long summer vacation which is the best time to catch up on stuff but eventually even that "make work" work runs out.

One of the reasons I left my last job was because I didn't have enough to do - like you it seems, Gee (and I'm so sorry to hear that) - and when I got this one and complained to a friend that I didn't have a moment to myself because I was so busy, she laughed at me and reminded me of more boring times!  Careful what you wish for, she said...

It's very easy, Gee, to think that you keep ending up in the wrong job but I found that it took a long time to find the right job after I'd left a job I'd loved after 10 years - I think it took four placements over about 5 years before I found the right one (this one) which I absolutely love.  So, take heart, try not to be down although I know how hard it is not to feel that way.  

All good wishes to everyone for 2009 - let's hope it's not as bad as the media keep painting.
