On Saturday, we went shopping for new desks for our home office.  We wanted 5 desks that matched.  Glen, Pete and I all have differring tastes, so I knew it was going to be difficult.

Pete chose the colours for the newly renovated office, which is Green Aspen for the feature wall and a lighter green for the rest.  So we needed to get something that would match the new office.  After going through all the desks, we finally all came to an agreement.  We wrote down the details and went to the warehouse bit where you pick them up.

When we got to the area the desktops should be, there was only one left.  So we went to find out if they had more or when the next shipment is coming in.  Bad news.  The line is being discontinued and they only had one left.  So our entire Saturday afternoon searching for new desks was only the beginning of a long drawn out episode.  We are still looking for a desk we all agree on again… GRRRRRR!

I have a new job, well I have for a while actually.  I started on the 2nd of January.  It’s really close to home, they are extremely flexible and I have got a company car in my salary package - YAY!  Of course there are teething issues.  I have never used the type of Accounting Software that they use and there are no existing finance people that are there that can show me.  I’m sure once I’ve settled in, everything will be great!
