Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I have only been in my new job since the beginning of November, and I mostly like it, no applying here! The job sounds interesting Rae, good luck, and good luck all applicants.

I have no intention of ever applying for a job again. Unless I have to come out of retirement for some awful reason.
Good luck to all the job hunters and new starters.

I've lifted some dumbbells this afternoon and done a short run.

Well done all - the commute was a joy. And I spent all day playing computer games.

It's 10 years since I gave up work and I am finding myself looking at part-time job adverts and thinking 'Maybe...' But then I remember that I live in two places, 'need' to run at least three times a week in daylight, and swim in the open air, also ideally in daylight, so the job hours would have to be not so much part-time as 'when I can be bothered'.

I mostly enjoy my job but i get frustrated by the constant turnover of staff (I’ve trained 10 technicians in the last 3 years 🙄) ans the blaxk of physical space we have to work in. Applied for a similar job at the Uni, not 100% my area of expertise, but a new challenge would be good. Current department would fall apart if I left - that’s not me being smug, but if you can’t pay enough to keep well trained staff then you end up with a knowledge vacuum 🤷‍♀️

:)
I’m dreaming of that day. Thought I had it nailed a couple of years ago but was a wee bit premature in my celebrations!

I don't dream of retirement or being part time.

Maybe rather do a job I truly love
