So its Thursday, a week and 1 day after the big news about Smith and Smith closing down, and us being retrenched. I am still looking for another job, still waiting in anticipation for a response, and wondering what the future holds.
Work here in the office has practicaly slowed down to a hault, with really just main architect Van Aardt working, although i somtimes see him also just surfing the internet. It is almost as if somone has just drained the energy out of the office, like there is no driving force. Like Pauline (the other architect) was saying, there's no passion anymore to do the work or regarding the office.Well i surpose thats whats happends when ur told ur being retrenched. Well i cant say that im doing any work iether, im neither here nor there regarding anything, or everything.
There are still a series of meetings going on informing us on the process, but really all they doing is repeating themselves over and over again, probably to cover there own asses. No real input is coming from these meetings, and everyone just seems more frustrated when they come out of them. Ofcourse its frustrating to them, they losing there jobs, there main source of income, there bread and butter. But for me, i like meatings, its a chance to do nothing, and talk around a table for even hours sometimes.
Some good news is, I recieved an email back from Bomax architects on tuesday, saying that they like my work and they will call me back on monday for a final interview with the director. Sounds really hopefull, and i will be keeping my fingers crossed till then.
till next time
