Back to Work

So I've just finished my first week back in work. First and foremost I should consider myself lucky to have a job. Next year is going to be by all accounts horrible. The commute is a pain right now - bus and train - and everyone seems to work a shift of 10.30 to 8 which, if I stuck to it would pretty much mean work-sleep-work and I really want to avoid that for my own sanity. Anyway, since I started there's been a Christmas party already and soon I'm going to be on forced holiday until the 12th of January. I'd rather not be using up my holidays for next year only a week into work but it was either that or wait until sometime in February for wages. So, hurragh to be back in a cubicle, working for the MAN.
