Sigh.

I've just been made redundant from my job. No fault of my own - from what I understand the banks came in on Thursday and told Amaro 15 of us were to go and this was how the costs were going to be cut. I was called into the office at 1 today and I'm now at home.

Complete shitter really, I had developed some nifty little things down there and it was all going nicely with a list of developments to the software I was writing. Still, onwards and upwards - least I have 9months experience.

I have to say I hold no ill feelings towards the company, its just a crying shame I'm sitting here rather than at my desk. Having said that, I was just thinking today "I would love to be outside on teh bike", so thats what I'm off to do!
