I went to the Hayseed Dixie gig (see post immediately below) with a lad I used to work with at Matrix – Mike. He was all after hearing about my new job, so I told him.
"So who are you working for now?"
"A company called Software Solution Partners."
"SSP? Where are they based?”"
"Halifax."
"Dean Clough? My housemate’s worked there for about 6-7 years."
Turns out I even had an email from said housemate forwarded to me by my boss last week.
Small world, indeed.
Incidentally, the company I worked for before the last one supplies hardware to my new employer. One of the customers I was the account manager for in that job is one of the main competitors in this one.
Hello,
I had an interview at SSP. Found your blog when I was doing some research! Nice place and people. A company going places. Nice biscuits in the meetings as well.
Ciao
Ah
