Post #62: The Heat, The Job, The Fan And My Weightloss

So ... it's September and it's boiling hot. It's making me very cross and I've been quite snappy with people. I was meant to accompany my friend to a special advance screening at the Cinema tonight, but the venue was closed due to a power cut. I rang Miss Friend and her mobile didn't pick up, it just rang and rang. I then sent her a text and she called me back, but I was quite short with her, bemoaning the fact that I couldn't leave a message on her voicemail as she doesn't switch it on because of the costs involved in retrieving messages.

Bah!

My new job is ... full-time. I have worked part-time since I returned from Maternity Leave. At least I don't currently have to commute. Yet.

Post #60 - Seeking Temporary Agency Work

Now, if you've been reading my blog regularly you'll know that I haven't worked full-time hours since 2007, a month or two before my son was born.  Why not? You may ask, well it's a combination of childcare and working part-time is better for my mental health overall.  Apparently ALL employers want FT staff now. Nice.

Fast forward to voluntary redundancy and now, the search for temporary employment.  I have registered with a couple of employment agencies, which I am not allowed to name because I've signed a confidentiality clause.  I can't really say a great deal else really.  Anyway, I did state on the paperwork that I do indeed have a disability and that it's Asperger's.  Gawd help me.
