Out of the frying pan

It's good to be back after my extended hiatus - it was a case of time flying when you're not having fun.

Well a couple of months ago I changed jobs - thankfully. I was working for one of our large financial institutions, and it became an increasingly unpleasant experience. Hopefully it's not out of the frying pan into the fire.

Most of the second half of last year was spent trying to find something new, and quite frankly it' s not that easy finding a new job that interests you, and you think you're going to be challenged by.

So now I'm doing something similar but in a much bigger, multi-national company, and funnily enough it's been a lot less stressful so far. I'm working on a virtual team, and the great thing about it is no office = no office politics, at least not much that I have to deal with. I also get to work at home a lot, but I'll write more about that in another post.
