No I’m not a fob who can’t spell MTV. If you don’t know what MTB stands for, you will by close of business! I moved from Auckland to Sydney to start at MTV exactly one month ago. I’m becoming a bit of a broken record with my entries about fresh starts/relocating but I have to say that […]
‘The Ratchet Forrest Gump’ – aye?! Is that even a compliment? Going through a major switch in my career [well, in my life really!] – to some it may come as a surprise but to many, it doesn’t. Over the last six months I’ve been quite deliberate in taking steps towards making a break in […]
