Those of you that have been reading for awhile will know that after being out of work for some time, I finally managed to land myself a really good job a few weeks ago.
Well, that job starts tomorrow, so I will probably not be around much this week (I always feel self conscious writing stuff like that, I know no one will really notice, but I wouldn’t want anyone thinking that I was being rude by not popping over and saying hello).
Once I am acclimatised to the idea of actually working again (Oh God, noooooooooooooo!) I will be back and filling you all in on how it’s all going, and also catching up with everyone else as well, as I know there will be a lot of writing to catch up on.
I would also like to thank everyone who has been kind enough to offer words of encouragement and wishes of good luck when I have written about the unemployment thing over the last few months, you may not think it, but it was really appreciated at this end, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart/bowel for that.
I’m pretty sure that once I know what my routine is going to be, I can balance work and writing, so at no point will any of you miss out on the inane drivel that passes for thoughts within my brain that gets zapped via laser beams into your computers.
In a way, I am very much like God, you may not see a lot of me, but I am always with you……..
Disclaimer- At no point am I referring myself as God. I am non religious. Actually it would probably be a good idea if I wasn’t God, for there would be a hell of a lot of smiting going on. There probably wouldn’t be that many people left. Just me and about 15,000 monkeys, which in its own way sounds like a little piece of heaven. I’d rename earth Monkey Land and become their ruler. They would carry me round on their little monkey shoulders and teach me monkey ways.
I have no idea where this is going either.
Anyway, back to reality. I hope your week is filled with everything that you desire, and may we all cross paths again soon (hopefully next weekend).
I’m literally high fiving everyone who is reading this.

Although I'm actually off [work, don't even start] tomorrow, I wish you all the best.
And of course we'll check in. How do you think I even FACE going to work? Coming home to read words which make me laugh while I appreciate your sense of humor all the while.

You won't need luck to do a great job; any employer worth their salt should be jumping for joy to have you on staff.
Well done, and we won't leave you...
You're becoming a zookeeper so you can hug that monkey, right? (not SPANK the monkey! Hug! HUG!)

Also, you are hilarious. Your disclaimer made me laugh out loud. That's right. It made me LOL.
Have fun at your first week, you will do great!

*skips second paragraph*
Hope the new job pans out well!
Well let me tell you something, mister. You aren't high fiving me right now. You are high fouring me because I lost a finger in a tragic alligator accident. Way to be insensitive, ass.
Just kidding. High five received and appreciated. Good luck at your new job.
Enjoy the new gig!
Good luck with the job, dude. Remember, don't stare at ladies' breasts unless they're definitely not looking and the supply closet is for supplies not illicit couplings. Good luck!
Congrats on the job.
You make me giggle and smirk at the same time!

Good luck on the first week of work! I hope that it's everything you'd hoped it would be.
And a water cooler more.
Cheers!

Twitter would appear to indicate that you survived your first day.
Well, that's my 'good luck on your first day' comment utterly redundant then.
Good luck for tomorrow, Dan.
You will be Employee of the Month quite soon! Bye bye till monkey. :)
Congrats again Dan and good luck on the new gig.
