Best of luck to you.
Left my last company after 10 years which was quite daunting. Changed industry and role which has turned out to be the best thing I've done. 6 years with current company and I traipse to London 2/3 days a week so your commute isn't too bad

Just sold my business after 27 years, and will work with the Company that bought it for at least 3 years to bed the clients in.

Longest I've been in one Job has been 3 years. Not a great record for someone who is 32. To be fair. 18-22 was university. 22-25 was working for a computer shop and then split up with my girlfriend at the time meaning I moved home. Then worked for a nursing home unitll I started uni again at 26. Qualified as a nurse at 29 and now have 3 years done in 3 different areas but all under the same contract. Finally got a permanent job that's due to start in March and will continue the contract so is shaping up to be my longest job. Hope to stay in the trust until I retire.

Good luck in your new position Greig...
First employer I spent 16 years with then I moved to 'glorious' Technicolor for 20 years... Since then I've doing a 'bit' here and a 'bit' there... Want to retire but that would mean selling up and moving away from the family which, I suppose, I am a bit scared about... Really enjoyed last summer as I did a bit of work with students and found it really rewarding...
One thing that I feel helped keeping me sane at work was having a strong 'interest' away from work that was completely at odds with what I was doing in the workplace... In my case 'playing' with cars...

For those that asked, I couldn't really say as all the knock backs hadn't gone out, I can now say that its with National Australia Group.
Confirmed start of 11th March, exciting times for the family.

Disappointed to report that I may have jumped the gun on this one. Verbal offer of the job on Tuesday does not match the physical contract delivered Friday.
Big big disappointment and some questions needing answered Monday. On the bright side, Sky offers will still be on the cards...

So after 2 long days negotiating and re-negotiating... I start with NAG on 11th March.
Notice in to Sky and an extra bit negotiated onto the new contract to compensate the problems.
Exciting times.. Again!

Cheers Martin. Going to be longer days overall but nothing that can't be absorbed and adapted to.
Just looking forward to life after Sky (not looking forward to paying for Sky for the first time though
)
