It seems I got it

About three weeks ago I stumbled upon a bit of information regarding a local car garage looking for a mechanic. I went to talk to the boss of the company in question, thinking it wouldn't hurt applying for it, even though I had no real hopes of ever getting out of my current employment situation. He said they would review the applications the first days after the easter weekend and get back to me.

Come this monday I had almost forgotten about it, when suddenly I got a phone call from the boss mentioned earlier. We decided I would come by and look at their workshop and meet the other members of the staff this morning, which I did. 30 minutes later it was decided I will start as soon as possible but no later than May 1st.

After mentioning my new employment to my current employer we agreed that I will stay on until April 30th to give them some time to find a replacement. I know - finding a replacement for me is quite difficult, but at least I'll give them a chance.

Well, anyhow; wish me luck with my new job and all.
