New Job Time me thinks
« on: January 01, 2011, 04:48:22 PM »
for those that don't know

I work in IT  as a Qualified Apple Tech for a Large Apple Re-Seller here in Australia ( well the largest)   and have been there for nearly 14 years ( almost since day 1 when we were just a little company and just 1 shop in Adelaide)

over the years I have been lucky enough to move to QLD then to Sydney then back to SA with the place

3 years ago ( or so ) we were brought to a Listed company  and after about a year the changes started 

now I am all for change however when they have NFI what they are doing and don't really get Service and don't really listen
they also say they want to be open and transparent however hear SFA or they don't like feed back it is we are doing this just deal with it
ok they can sell phones however it is a bit different to selling and fixing computers 


I think it is time I started looking else where. 


I have had my LSL ( Long Service Leave )  approved a while ago   so from March 21 to June 27   they can GAGF  I am on Holidays :)

have a few options  that I know are also coming up in the new year as well so I am going to wait and see what happens, lets hope I can find something that pays better and less stress +  gives me more time with the Family and to get out shooting.
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Good Luck!

Best of luck with the new job Phil.

Best of luck, Phil.

Burn your bridges after you are securely across it and comfortable.

The is a value is  having options available.  Maybe only a small percentage of an advantage, but no sense in doing anything you don't need to that reduces that percentage.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
