Who am I???

Hello dear readers,

Welcome to "Let's find out about Nightwatch" hour...

For those of you who aren't aware, I'm in the midst of finding another job. My m@#&$%&*(ing company has decided not to renew my contract. Why? Let's see... Cuz the Ops managers who took over after my previous Manager were blooming idiots??? One of whom didn't last 3 months in my agency. The other one has no idea what's going on. So plus releasing me he has 2 other staff resigning. Hmmm? Performance issues??? I hope he rots in hell! The bastard!!! Anyways, feeling all depressed I decided to do a personality profile... And here's what it said,

• Focused on tasks, persists until job is done.

• Detailed, meticulous and observant, quick to pick out abnormalities.

• Objective, but may appear detached.

• Does not seek positions of power or authority.

• A good supporter of others.

• Likes intellectual discussions, likes to explore ideas.

• Needs clear and thorough instructions, slow to act when uncertain.

Our thought for the day,

Just reflecting on the fact that when the Universe punches you in the teeth, it never just lets you fall down. It kicks you in the ribs a couple of times and dumps mud on your head.
