Work, 2007 style

Comparing work now to how it was this time in 2006, there are a number of similarities and a number of differences. Last year I may have supposed to been in Derby just after getting back, and this time I’ve to be down in the Bradford area on Thursday, which is the main reason for me being in work today, even though it’s technically a public holiday up here in Scotchlandia. Still, at least I may get to see Mr Gulp if he’s about.

In the last 12 months, the company has moved office twice (from a tiny office in Bearsden to the City Centre) and has gone from 3 full time employees to 5, increasing to 6 (or maybe 7) as soon as we find someone suitable, since our recruitment efforts in December failed to turn up anyone. The number of customers and projects has also increased, meaning the workload has also increased significantly. Since plans for a holiday failed in 2006, let’s hope 2007 fares better.

For now though, it’s back to work in this office which is more deserted than George W Bush’s brain.
