New Jobs

Adam had to come back off work. When he went to see the doctor he didn't think they were doing him a favour putting him a different department where he was sitting down all the time doing close work. He said it was the worse thing they could've done. Looks like it was a ploy to get rid of him. Anyway the doctor signed him off straight away and we decided it was best if he gave up altogether and I went back to work. The first job I came across I got an interview within half an hour of emailing my CV. I went for the interview at Gemini Dispersions and found it a really close knit friendly firm. Was the only one suitable out of over 20 applicants and was called back for a 2nd interview to meet the team. Mike took me round the factory and I met more or less every employee working there. Most of them had been there at least 15 years or more. Anyway he said I'd got the job if I still wanted it. Turns out I get 36 days holiday. Thought originally it was only 28 days but that didn't include statutory days.

Adam's in training now to be a househusband. He's doing really well. He'll probably end up doing it better than me. He's had a couple of rough days just lately with his depression but the doctor has changed his medication back to Fluoxetine on request. It takes 3 weeks for the medication to take effect so he's bound to take a turn for the worse until the drugs kick in.
