At long last I've landed myself a job that I don't consider to be half bad.
I get to build up EPOS systems, designed to be used in the hospitality sector (i.e. pubs/clubs/restaurants/hotels/football clubs/leisure complexes). Those touch screen thingies you see when you pay for your steak and chips in your local will be my forté from now on. And when I'm not building them up, I'm travelling all over the north of England and Scotland, in my company supplied car, installing them and tutoring clients on how to use them.
It might not sound much to you, but every job I've had so far has been total crap, paying total crap wages and with no prospects whatsoever. Now I've finished Uni it's time to stop fecking about. Even if I find it not challenging enough with relation to the I.T. aspects, it's great experience and good on my CV.
Plus there's a plethora of barmaids and waitresses out there needing 'one to one' tuition.
Just thought I'd bore you with all that information. Seeing as how all my mates are staying in tonight or doing other crap, I've decided to celebrate with a few cans and some loud music.

Excellent. Where at?
A company called 'Bleep 2000'. Based in London, but with a branch near me.
Funky name. But that's really a good catch; not just creating the systems, but you get to travel out and help your clients. Graduates rarely get the chance to do that from the start, they have to work a few months coding before they travel out. Good job.
I got it through an IT consultant/recruitment agency in Liverpool, called Bluefire. Decent people, unlike most agencies that just pi5H you about.
Bluefire... do they have placements for people doing a year out?
And did you have to visit their branch?
And did you have to visit their branch?
Yeah, well I wasn't looking for that particular type of job. I get regular job notification e-mails from the 'totaljobs' website, and this one came up. I always wanted to do a bit of travelling, but never thought I had the personality to be a sales rep.

No, just applied for the job online, and within an hour I was contacted by them. Got the interview within a week.
Not sure about the placements thing, you could give them a try I suppose.

Where are you up to with your course anyway?
What was it's official title?
