Accepted a new job yesterday but not really a big lifestyle change
« on: August 24, 2011, 01:13:43 PM »
The new job is exactly what I'm doing now, but for a rival company.

I've been sticking it out here for a while, what was a wonderful job has turned into a total nightmare over the last 18 months or so.

Lets see what the new place brings, still have to figure out a start date.

I feel.. relief

Must admit, I thought you were a full-time musician!  So you use up your holidays for touring?

Anyway, best of luck with the new job!

Well, it had crossed my mind that you have somehow amassed a great guitar collection from that Commodore 64 music!   :P
