Much to my disdain The Sun won today caption competition with:
"Papa Ratzi"

And what the world needs right now is another aging white guy telling billions of (mainly less aged and less white) people what to do.

The up side?
I bet Mugabe's pissed.

Work.

Oh dear.

So I am finally working on a bid. Several really. I like writing bids. So this is good.

So there is another job going internally for six grand more that I could probably get if I went for it. But it would take me away from fundraising although maybe not comepletely.

And now there is the job I have an interview for, probably tomorrow afternoon, as a Fundraising Officer. Nasty commute though, and three grand more rather than six. Which is in zone 4. 90 minute commute.

But if I stay where I am, less money but having fun, I can up-sticks and move at the end of this year or beginning of the next.

If I take the the six grand rise I could end up here for another two years. After which my redundancy would pay for me to move. I can also apply for this as a 0.5 (half time) role, and see if they'll let me do that whilst my project still exists, which will also be three grand a year more. But going for it half time seriously compromises my chances.

If I take the Fundraising role I have a noticeable payrise and a noticeably nastier commute, and will probably get sick of it and want to move after the year, hopefully having saved the funds to do so.



What do you think?

I have an "Informal Meeting" with the Fundraising Officer people Monday afternoon.
I have to talk about all the bid stuff I've done.

Practice.

Yup.

Testing the waters.

Yup.

There is still the application I have to write tonight.

And the speech to finish.

Yes.
