    It's quite difficult adjusting to the change at the start, but you'll get used to it pretty quickly.

    I'm a uniformed member with Defence (used to work in a major private company) and one thing you'll appreciate immediately is the significantly reduced red tape, bureaucracy and turtle-paced approval processes. Things happen much faster in the private sector that's for sure.
    I will be consulting for a Government department, so sadly that red tape will be there.

    Got to hear "Dare to be Stupid" performed live at Weird Al's concert last night. One less thing on my bucket list!

    I didn't think it would be played since it's one of his more obscure hits. I think there was only about 3 other TFTM afficiando's in the crowd who appreciated this, the rest of the crowd sat in very subdued silence. Didn't help that the sound engineer at the Palais Theatre was awful and vocals were very much drowned out by music for the first half of the show.

    I love that feeling. Telling my former manager to go shove it during December in a retail job was priceless.
