Sir Cliff and then a bit of Slapstick

Talking of the wrong job, I suspect it’s about time that I told you about my impending job change (although I doubt it will bring me a Porsche Carrera any time soon). I am set to leave Wipro in two weeks time, and I’ll be munching the grass of a new American pasture in September at EMC. I’ll be a director in their consulting business which they are trying to (re)build in Europe under the guidance of an ex-Accenture (American) partner. As much as I really enjoy the role that I have currently at Credit Suisse, the wider company and I don’t see eye to eye on a few key points. That plus the appeal of working for a woman with exactly the same name as my wife, and also with the likes of young Neville Wall, has proved just too great a temptation. Neville has also promised that I can be Laurel as we buy a WV camper van and start doing a “Big Data in the Cloud” tour of Europe. For the eagle eyed among you, you’ll notice that I’ve managed to arrange it such that I have a student-esque 6 week break.....we’re all going on a, Summer holiday...tra la la la la, let’s just hope I don’t fracture my arm in three places like last Summer.
