All this knitting, sewing, walking in the woods and working for a not-for-profit has finally put me on the path towards eco-awareness. Better late then never eh? Plus the other stuff in my life.

Forever
I just got asked to go permanent today, at work.
It's good, because it means we have some financial security now.
On my fixed term contract, I haven't been eligle for annual leave - but my pay is topped up with holiday pay to make up for it. And I've had much more sick leave already than I was eligible for!
The big plus will be the financial security and being able to take paid holidays at some stage, though we probably can't afford to go anywhere...
You'll be getting paid time off, though?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteWhenever we can complain about having too much work, it's a good thing. ;)

Ha! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYou'll get proper holidays and sick leave won't you?
