    Thumbs up Yipee!!!!!!

    Last week I got a message from a girl I worked with at my last job about a contract job going where she and another former colleague are working. Replied but heard nothing...

    Wednesday got a call from an agency about a contract job, and got asked for interview on Thursday.
    Drove over and waited in reception for the guy to come and interview me only to hear a very familiar female voice say "Hi Martin. Come on up." - the girl who I used to work with and who'd messaged me about a contract job...
    Interview went very well and yesterday got a call to say they want to offer me the job.

    Very handy as my redundancy pay runs out after paying the rent next month...

    Not sure which is better, to be remembered by someone with a "familiar female voice" or a new job. Either way, well done Sir.
