So yesterday was my 28th Birthday! It was nice. I woke up to some nice pressies from Andy, a Kombi van shaped money box and a beautiful diamond pendant. From that point, the day just got better through a course of little events. I was racing the train, managed to score a perfect park at the station and the driver waited for me. Bless her (it was the husky voiced lady, I feel like I should be paying $5.95 each time she announces the next station).
I got to work and everyone was happy to see me and hear all about my holiday, I got countless very lovely Happy Birthday messages on Facebook and it was a generally un-crappy day in the research centre.
At 3:30, I closed the research centre down and sat down to bash out a job application which had been due last Friday, but I begged their compassion on the grounds that I had been on leave and only read the email today. No sooner did I get off the phone to them, my phone rang and it was a panel member from a position that I had applied for before I went on leave. I had received a letter when I got back from my trip saying that the selection process had to be put on hold for 12 weeks, however she said that the process was now off hold and that I won the position! WOW! It's a personal assistant role in the Health Department and I should be starting in around 3 weeks. Central location, so no more 60km round trip every second week! Hip hip hooray!
It seems that I am bathing in a vat of Smarties at the moment!
Stay tuned for the next exciting installment......
