Or part time that I didn't want.) What I was saying was you CAN waste away in such a job. My best job was in the print dept of a newspaper doing nights. I had no social life but my social life was there. I was sad to leave but they wouldn't give me a permanent contract. So I fled town, came back 6 months later and of course everyone who'd joined when I did and stuck it out had been taken on properly...<BR/><BR/>ps when I left they had to replace me with 2 people!Gledwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308172310486574510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-75448017799004972922009-04-06T17:30:00.000+01:002009-04-06T17:30:00.000+01:00Dear Gleds,But it is in your frank and honest admi...Dear Gleds,<BR/><BR/>But it is in your frank and honest admissions such as this post where you have to realize that your life has value!
