JOBLESS !!!...

This week and month started out just like any other with a new-monday and a carry-on-tuesday, but when wednesday came, it awoke a whole new term i did not think i would hear till my late 40's, RETRENCHMENT...

I came out of a big meeting on wednesday, with big boss( who has the tumor) and big bosses brother, along with a labour lawyer, where we were all told that the company Smith & Smith Architects is closing down, we need to look for alternave work, and issued with notice of retrenchment letters.
WoooooooooHHhoow.jees loueeeess. Me, a student being retrenched, sounds crazy stupid. What do I do now, What is my next move,Where do i go from here, Will i find another job now when there are still students looking since december? All Questions running through my mind as i sat there that wednesday afternoon at work, staring at the computer screen, sitting in my chair looking at work that now seems pointless since we wont be here for long. A computer and chair that i have become to love, in an environment i have become familiar and comfortable with, and now i have to leave behind and its only been 2 months. BUT CHANGE IS INEVITABLE... so change i must do.

That being said, my mother as great as she is, as soon as i told her, started sending my portflio around once again, while i was at work. Then the very next day i got i call for an interview on friday at Bomax architects.
The interview went well, they liked my work and said i was the best they've seen so far and it was a bonus that i already had Revit experiance.Then i was ended with a," thanks we'll let u know" the very same words that haunted me last time, aaarwww, i hate those words...

So yes, I am back at the starting point, after my trial run, waiting for the gun to go off so that i can finally make my mark, and embark on this years journey, so that i can win my race.

till next time
