<nods> been there, it sucks. I told my boss last time if they made me do it again I wouldn't bother, because filling in their application forms was no less effort than filling in someone else's. That seemed to stop them, although I guess I'm lucky enough to be fairly hard to replace.

They have managed to make it a load more complicated than applying for a "normal" job

I've sent more non-work related emails and made more phone calls today than I have in the past month!  Sadly my social life isn't going up so much as having to sort things out. Winter alloys might be off the list, but an aftermarket intake might be on the cards! _________________He fights for the users.

I was showing my other half an article in 3D World magazine about Industrial Light and Magic and their work on Revenge Of The Sith. Indicating a photo of Chewbacca and a small army of Wookies I said something along the lines of "Apart from the few at the front, which are actors in costume, all the rest are digital."
She said "Are those Ewoks?"
I am perturbed. There is a disturbance in The Force.

A Muse song brought back really poignant memories of uni, and it sounded quite dated....  Getting old.
