So I start my new job on Monday.
My less paid, less stressful job.
I am looking forward to it, but nerves are setting in, I must admit.
I have done an Aldi shop this morning to get a few lunchy bits - cheese. I love a plain cheese sandwich. I am extremely boring
Whilst I was there I also got a few other bits, toilet rolls and other essentials so we don't run out during my first week back at work...as I am sure the last thing I will want to do is go out to Aldi after work when it is probably at it's busiest.The opposite of what you know...is also true0 -

Jackie, could I beg a copy too, please?
BachSoon, I'm assuming you're working in a practice. Could transferring to a corporation work for you? As well as staffing the Legal Department, lawyers often make good Company Secretaries. My colleagues in Legal used to tell me that their jobs were far less stressful than their time in practice and gave them more job satisfaction.
