Contract Renewed!

It's always a relief to get a contract renewal, even when I'm expecting one. This time round, there was the added complication of budget cuts (in the hope of luring an American firm into a merger). With this extension somewhat unexpected, and for six months, it's a double-relief I guess. My boss said, "you're doing a lot of good work for us", which had me baffled. Then again, he hasn't been round all that much. Now, I just need to work out if I want to stay in I.T., or do something else when I grow up.
