Reference and police checks are underway for the new role. All goes well should have an offer shortly.

Excited, cause it's something new. Nervous cause it's something new. Anxious, cause I really don't want to meet new people.

Anxious, cause I really don’t want to meet new people.

I feel that. Deep in my soul.

I'll have a few months to suss things out and hopefully fall into a nice groove.

The new dept seems to be on the younger side, which is fine. I can deal with younger than older, enteenched

You're only as old as you think.

I feel older but think younger generally.

Want some buzz words? "Brainrot", "skibidi toilet" "yeet" and "get on the tiktoks". You'll fit right in!

Instead of shaking people's hands, I'll dap them up and dab right after.

That ought to raise my respect levels.
