Janneman in Holland.

Okay. What is that Jan doing in Holland. Now, at the moment my life is pretty regular i’m afraid. I’m searching for a nice job and home in Amsterdam. I still hope to be there in September-October. Until then I’m working at a government institution, 40 hours a week. And what am I doing? Putting stickers on files. Here is how a random working day looks like.

First I grab my bike to drive to work. That’s so Dutch :) It is 9 km to the office, so it takes my half an hour to get there.

And I see the beautiful Dutch scenery in the morning sun.

After 30 minutes I arrive at the big bad office in the city of Arnhem.

And it goes 8 hours like this:

1) Get files

2) Put stuff in them and put a sticker on it.

(the thing you see are all stickers)

3. Put them away in the archive.

It’s not the most intellectualy appealing work, but it gets me quite some good money for the big move to Amsterdam.

But, after 40 hours of putting files away, you always have the weekends. With friends, alcohol, and a lot of good times.

When I have more news about the move to Amsterdam, I’ll check in right away.

Yeah days are getting more regular at home. At least you could find a job to finance your time until you found the actual job you are looking for. Good luck! :-)

Ohw, and “Roep it maar” means “Shout it”. And putting stickers on files just sucks. Wish I was still at SCR.

Jannnnnn! :D Wat leuk om te zien dat jij nu ook een blog hebt ;) Ik zag dat we nu heuze ex-collega’s bij Libersy zijn op LinkedIn.

Ik hoop dat je snel een crib vindt in Amsterdam :D Ikzelf ben opzoek naar naar een crib in Delft.. ook niet makkelijk te vinden!

Nou, tot snel misschien! :D
