Working in a coal mine
Well, I’ve been given the advanced warning that I’m to get the axe. Not a hammer or screwdriver but an axe. Ive been anticipating this for several months and its a bit of a relief to finally get the nod. Eire is a fine company with very honest management; Ive never been lied to or deceived in any way. Well there was the time I was told that the contract with Reuters would end in March that went until August Good news is that I have a nest egg that should carry me for several months, Ive been making contacts with headhunters and been exploring the job landscape for awhile so I wont be starting from scratch. If Im lucky I wont find a new job right away, I can study Japanese and take it easy for a spell. Now to start practicing, Hey brother, can you spare some yen?
