What a WEIRD day! If you read last very sad post, let me tell you what happened today:
fK picked my hardware and myself up.
We found mT2 and I gave him all my stuff... nearly: I can keep headset, keyboard and mouse.
mT2 and I chatted forever, long enough till out of the blue mMN turned up, I met him on the BYO summer-festival.
(in case you are new: f stands for female and m... well, male)
Luckily I am very afraid of fire, hence mMM wanted me in the Fortescue project (which we did not get): Iron-ore trains through Pilbara, Western Australia, running on batteries.
mMN works with... batteries. And I knew a lot. Turned out he is fK´s teamlead.
We talked till my teamlead, mMS, turned up, he said, let´s talk and invited mMN also.
I told about my plans becoming technical editor and that, if the job-agency pays, it may take up to twelve months.
mMS said, "perfect, if that works I guarantee to get you back!"
He went on, "write them an e-mail with this info, mMN and myself in cc and if they refuse, the two of us go there in person!"
He.Wants.Me.Back!!!!
I can´t be that bad!
I said, "well, Ingo plans already another 6-weeks-holiday in Perth our winter next year...."
mMS: "No problem!".
So, e-mail, soon, fK will proofread, then mMN will proofread and then it goes to the job-center.
Then I met mK for whom I worked with a DB-project and he said, too, he´ll get projects and will want me back, too.
Life is a ...
I said, "maybe you have to give it back to me next January, February" - she said, "some good news, finally, I get so many token back it is no fun no more...".
I still can´t believe how very lucky I am (sadly the pressure is very high, too, I´m not 20 anymore...)
Need me on a construction site? The ESE-baseball-cap in first pic is a construction helmet by UVEX. Too small for fK.
The kale? From fK, too, I wanna try kale-chips in the air-fryer.
What a day!!!

I am glad if you are glad. But, I myself am so happy I am retired. I am 79, but you are early 50s. So, long time before you retire. LOL.
Happy to hear this, Iris.
Good on you
I didn't realize I missed yesterday's sad post, so I went and read it. I'm glad today is a better day. And don't forget not to take business personally. It's the people who matter, and so those rooting for you are good people! Keeping my fingers crossed. hugs-Erika
That's such a relief, I bet! Kale chips left me cold, however. I hope they work for you.
Rub it in! ;-) Well I hope all goes well and the job will be fun!
So yes!
A start!
Some/ many sued the company - just what for? It is miserable times, in my old company the same happens, everywhere. They don´t let b people go for fun but because they have to.
I understood and signed at once and maybe that also is the reason they want me back :-)Happy hugs to that!
Well nothing has decided yet... Kale chips will be a first for me...
Great news always livens up the day!
Yay! This is good news indeed! Whew. I was so worried.
This sounds promising and I am very happy to read it.
It SO does!
Well I´m not safe yet, but it´s looking good!
Yes! I was so relieved!
Good.
