Today has been a stressful day in the City, saw a lot of my colleagues go which was sad! They were called "downstairs" and that was that, never came back!
Bonuses will be affected this year after all the hard work you've put in and the stress you've had and handled during the last few months of the market turmoil! Well add to this that I am single, Algerian and a female!!....What? It does matter! Its stress factor upon stress factor…
No other news to report today…just that it’s bloody cold in London and it gets dark in less than an hour (note that it’s 15:45 now)
Still looking for the ideal man and still hopeful….are you out there?

Good post.

ReplyDeleteRecession was commencing when you published this post....unfortunately five years on and the financial climate hasn't improved, quite the contrary, the job market is detoriating year after year, wages have drastically decreased and the inflation has not been aligned with our wages.
ReplyDeleteI am generally optimistic but one has to remain realistic also. The only way is definitely not Essex but Asia. Imminent immigration there seems quite attractive at the moment. ;-)
