I've got a job!

And about time. Been job hunting since graduating from uni 3 months, 84 applications, and 13 interviews ago. Finally got an absolutely fantastic offer. I'm going to design missiles for a living!

I won't actually be starting for ages though. They're going to spend about 2 or 3 months making sure I'm not a communist or terrorist or anything. Which means 2 or 3 months of freedom from any responsibilities. I think I might go travelling...

Well done!

Good luck with it!

Aye. I'm probably not allowed to give any details, but they've got some fairly interesting projects going on.

Good work mate, what degree did you do?

Archy · 7 Oct 2008 at 16:20

Congrats! Make ones with smiley faces on them!

If it's your first proper job designing missiles...how could you get previous experience designing missiles if you weren't a terrorist?

I'm telling the metropolitan scuffers.

p.s. Congratulations, and make sure to have a shark eye/teeth logo on them.
Jam Missiles also seems cool. Put jam in, in place of explosives for the first few prototypes. (Then upload the video to t'internet and post here).

I think I quite like the idea of the smiley face actually. Or is that too grim?

I've got a job!
