12 years sounds like a long probation period.

I've been approached by another firm, which is nice to feel wanted, but I don't know if I want to take it or not.
I'm married, I'm on probation for the rest of my life...


Moving jobs is always difficult, I left my last job because i was tired of the commute and was under paid, but the people i worked with were fantastic and there are times where i regret leaving.

It'd be an easier decision if I had reasons for wanting to change, but the thing is I haven't even been looking for another job. I love mine, it's great and I have no reason to change. And now this has come out of the blue and presented a real conundrum.

Ho hum. I'll do what I usually do when faced with difficult choices - get pissed and forget about it.

With the JPT Final tomorrow I cannot be the only one who on reading the headline assumed this was about City.

Discuss it with your boss? Tell them about the approach and see if there's a way you can win out of this by staying at the job you like, but with better prospects. If they know others are after you they might be inclined to offer you a payrise or some kind of benefit for staying with them, particularly if you're a relatively important member of staff (which I presume you would be otherwise you wouldn't be being headhunted).

Just added a DAC to my a/v setup, made by a company called Schiit (yes, that's really the name) . The difference it's made to the audio from my computer is incredible. Can't wait to try some high def music.

Can't find the 6 nations thread but the egg chasing today was incredible.

Incredible how poor the defences were, Southern Hemisphere sides must be quaking in their boots, I don't think.

Good to see the Bath players contribute to england offensive qualities though. Joseph, Watson and Ford have had an impressive campaign.

The less said about Scotland the better, dross.

The England game today was unbelieveable. If more games were like that I would watch a lot more Rugby. Sadly for England though, they were the Rugby equivalent of Arsenal. Amazing going forward but couldn't stop the bastards at the other end.

You can't slip a fag paper between England, Ireland and Wales and the fact that the Southern Hemisphere teams are having to come over here has to level things out a bit.

That said, I would still put my money on one of them (Southern Hemisphere teams) winning it. England will at the very least be in the last four though IMO.

It's going to be interesting.

Changed for you

Quote someone sent in to the BBC :

Alan in Manchester: Perhaps Stevie G can spend his last 44 minutes of a competitive meeting with United looking at Ryan Giggs's Premier League medal collection?

Chef's are the new rock-stars. Well locally. I get recognised in pubs quite often as the guy who works in LG. Normally overweight toothy birds, but it's still a nice confidence boost.
