Coming back to work after the Christmas break is always a funny time. Usually (at least at my last job), it’s a gradual return with clients not really getting going until the second or third week of January.
This couldn’t be further from this with a start-up. After the long break it’s a relief to get straight back into the swing of things at the simplygoodadvice office here in Soho with so much exciting things to do. The weeks leading into the break were frantic with lots to get moving on, but with a long Christmas break on the horizon it was frustrating knowing that a lot of things were going to be put into mothballs for a couple of weeks.
However, the simplygoodadvice office is back and moving full steam ahead. We’re only half way through the week and already there have been lots of interesting meetings, articles for simply-communicate written, lights for the office bought, as well as a couple of bylined articles for some HR publications. All very exciting.
For those of you interested, Liam seems to have got the hang of his Mac now; he’s only asked me for technical support once so far this week. His frustrations have however been transferred to eBay where he is selling a treasured bike that took him halfway across France. He’s not got any firm bids but masses of inane questions from fellow bike obsessives. Funnily enough, my girlfriend works for a well-known cycling magazine, so I was able to appease him with a copy of the Christmas edition a couple of days before it hit the newsstands as a Christmas gift.
