Back to the grind...

After an 11 month 'gap year', followed by 3.5 weeks as a 'Job Seeker', I start a new job on Monday...

It's going to be hard to get back into the swing... Oh, so hard...

And I'm not sure whether it's good news or bad - but I couldn't afford to skive any longer!

What is it?

"Senior Software Tester" for a company that does trading desk systems.

Should be fine - I had lots of good feelings about the company since the whole interview thing started; quick decisions, straight dealing, big parent company with promotion opportunities, good balance of analysts, developers and testers/QA.

Oh yes - respectable money too!

Means that I'll be commuting again, but not all the way into London - only 2/3 of the way...
