Well, everyone at Autotrail's been on their tip-toes for the past couple of months after the company let 47 staff go due to decreasing production, and yesterday we all got the bad news that another 53 were going to be given the push, and I was one of them. D'oh.

I just thought I'd mention it as I won't be spending much money until I can get another job lined up and the Toad's future is looking bleak until I can get grounded again.

Anybody know of any random/difficult jobs round 'ere for a fast-learning Computing graduate (who's not that good at programming)? hehe


Cheers,


AL

Sorry about that Ben, I've got an interview with Grimsby College next Friday. Should be interesting, it's to be a computing tutor...

Not really sure which direction I want to head in next, preferably something considerably more lively than my last job.

Yup, depends how complicated you want them and which languages are needed. I'm pretty good with HTML and CSS, can do PHP, JAVA and Flash, but I've not had that much experience with them.
