Well, it was my last day at work on Friday and so I have now joined the ranks of the gainfully unemployed.

It seems really strange not to be at work. This is the first time that I’ve handed in my notice and left a job with nothing to go to at the other side. I must say, it was probably one of the most unnerving and unnatural things I have ever done

Thankfully I’ve managed to hold onto my company car for a few more weeks and they have also let me keep hold of my mobile until I’m ready to move (probably so they can call me if they get stuck).

Although banks are not normally associated as being the most fun places to work, I’ve really enjoyed my 2.5 years there. I worked with a really good bunch of people. The cash was half decent and the job itself was great!

Let’s just hope that I can look forward to acquiring a similarly good role when we move out to Aus
