Quel suprise.
My application was not successful, my boss doesn't think there will ever be enough staff. "And anyway, you might not even be here in June," was an interesting final point for him to make since the testing is in May and it's up to me to decide when I leave. I have packed up my lounge suite, desk, bookcase and the media shrine; and I am embiggened by this episode to boxing the rest, removing it to the shed, and living out of a suitcase so I can leave instantly.
