A new start - new job and finished uni
« on: November 20, 2009, 10:17:44 PM »
Well, uni has finished now (as of monday, actually, so i've already had a few days of 'freedom'), and i'm now once again a bona fide member of society, and not some scrounging little git :) And also, rather fortunately, I landed myself a pretty swell job a few weeks back, and am currently working as a technician in a large recording studio in london, which i'm rather happy with!

Just fancied tell you all, really :) Hows everyone else getting on, it's been a while since i've properly been on here?

Good score. Getting a job still seems to be a struggle in this economy.

Well done Will, fantastic score on the job front - a recording studio is a creative environment and can only foster your musicianship.  Happy days.

Good stuff, sounds like it might be a fun job :) I'm really not looking forward to finding a job next year as there are already no "normal" jobs let alone what I want to do (media related). Got any good contacts you can share? :D

Cheers guys! :) I certainly feel pretty fortunate to have got a job doing what I wanted, in the current times (especially for the audio industry).

Yea, all done... was meant to finish in September, but there were delays with the course, so it finished in November instead.

Wez: Don't worry, i've got a few ideas that'll materialize in the new year ;) I've actually just got a commission for a bass from one of the guys there, which should help things along!
