Temping is a waste of time. Filing. Typing. Monitoring other people's expense accounts. No long-term projects. No control over the future. What am I doing?

Of course, I knew they wanted me to leave. Ever since the day of the fire drill. They didn't have to write it in the company's constitution: Clause 8a - No more temps.

Ok, so it wasn't a fire drill. It was just a test. But I did exactly what the guy who came to test the fire alarm told me to. I warned everyone that it's just a test and there's no need for anyone to get up from their desk. I told everyone I could see.

How was I to know there were also 70 people on the three floors above? And why did they all wait in the car park for over an hour before finding out what was going on?

Anyway, it's time for a career change. I need to do something challenging. Something interesting. I need to be creative. Learn some different skills. Travel.
