Biting off more than I can chew?
Before Christmas my manager asked all of his team leads who would be interested in doing a Diploma in Management Studies, only two of us said yes and on Monday I got the thumbs up. I'm the lucky so-and-so who gets to dedicate all their free time to self-development (couldn't I just eat pies???)
So Monday I fills in the form and, just before close of play today, I'm told I have to fill in an application and take it with me to an interview tomorrow. Wow, this just gets better and better. I shouldn't moan, it's a fantastic opportunity all bought and paid for by work (£2000 on little old me, amazing!)
So why am I so trepidacious? (Excellent word, one for Paul) Because I think I may be over loading myself I suppose. It's an awful lot of work on top of a full-time job and a family. Oh but I so want to get out of here (Liverpool that is). If I could get my son away from the no-marks he hangs around with and move the whole family in the general direction of better, I'd be a much happier little bunny.
Ever since my cousin got his clearance to emigrate to Australia, my feet have been itching. Oz might be stretching it a bit but there has to be something better out there.
The course starts the end of this month and will take two years to complete but it's a goal, a light at the end of the Mersey Tunnel. I'm tied into my flat until September 2006 anyway, so maybe the two things will come together at the same time. Wish me luck tomorrow, this could be the start of great things. I really do hope so.
