			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Awww buggar, t&#8217;would seem that the powers-that-be have finally swung their Sauron like gaze towards me and wondered; &#8220;WTF does he do?&#8221;</p>
<p>So I now find myself, just before Christmas, in the position of having my role officially classed as &#8220;at risk&#8221;.  As my manager helpfully put it at my 1:1 interview; &#8220;It&#8217;s not you, but your role that&#8217;s at risk&#8221;.  I think I feel better.</p>
<p>However, I am taking this rather positively and am not *too* down.  It doth give me the opportunity to see what new adventures are available out there and I have about 6 months in which to do it in (or possibly 12 if you read the rather vague HR document in another way; head slanted at a jaunty 30 degree angle kind of way).</p>
<div id="attachment_1244" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 212px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1244 " title="Andy job searches whilst rockin to that crazy val doonican beat" src="http://www.andys-blog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/ball_sw_02_zoom.jpg" alt="That's me that is.." width="202" height="139" /><p class="wp-caption-text">That&#39;s me that is..</p></div>
<p>So I am currently calling upon the mighty powers of Web 2.0, and sacrificing my first born upon its altar (sorry Alex but the Internet is a cruel, yet just, deity) to see what can be found for a jobbing IT Guru without actually getting up from my seat&#8230; well actually this blog post comes more from a Pod than a seat, but I&#8217;m painting a picture here&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;fin!</p>
