New writing position 10/09/2010

Today has been a quiet day, a standard shift really. It should be noted I do enjoy my job, honestly I didn't anticipate that when I first got it. I suspect that is down to the people I work with.

I won't bore you with a tale of shift management.

In other news I have been offered a position to write video game reviews for Twenteen the zeen for inbetween's. This zeen, both electronic and printed is an exciting new publication with an incredible scope for potential and I am excited to be part of it.

I fully intend to attend gaming premiers and midnight openings, one on the horizon is The World of Warcraft expansion Cataclysm. As an avid gamer the prospect of writing about something I love is bliss. I'll have to pitch my tent in London's Oxford street and take my phone to record any interviews I manage to get.

My quote of the day is this; picture the scene.
you walk into the Office to see your boss sitting on the desk dressed from top to toe in black, looking much like Death's bank manager. His trousers, shirt even his tie have no detail at all just a clean sharp black. I catch the latter half of what he is saying.
"you don't want an early grave, graves really are six feet deep too, my arms aren't that long so I'd be clambering at the mud to get out."

Alright it's not a direct quote, a touch of ad lib there. But it was the most surreal thing to walk in on this year!
