Aye. Its gonna be hard. My girlfriend made me dinner and got me drunk when I told her the news. What more can you ask?
Searching through NT and it doesn't look too good. Dammit.

search for Stylejunky here, he is in Ireland working for someone.

I wouldn't have thought searching through NT is going to be that productive...
Have you registered with loads of agencies etc? Best thing is to get a list together of all the companies you'd like to work for and get in contact with them yourself, don't wait for a position to be advertised. It's only a tiny percentage of jobs that ever actually get advertised.
You can do it ian!

are you in Dublin?
Its pretty grim here at the moment, workwise that is. Id suggest contacting them all because contrats will always start coming in with the new year

Cheers lowimpakt, forgot about that site. Yeah im in Dublin and i'd love to keep working here but yes, the work situation is pretty dire at the mo.
The crimbo party is on tomorrow and the bosses want me to go but Im not sure. Whadda ya think?
- pascii0
i would. if they didn't treaten you bad.
- ian0
Nah, but I did warn em that Id probably just get drunk and spiteful and start throwing abuse.
One of the seniors then suggested that I could get so fucked up that I couldnt even talk and that would solve the problem.

Yeah agencies are really scaling things down here..
I've been just doing freelance stuff lately - theres work out there alright it all depends on how good your work is/who you know..
firmlist is the comprehensive list.. mail me your cv when you get it up to date - always looking for people I can call on locally..
