steve68 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Good luck - there are plenty of interest groups on here for hobbies and other activities, have a look through them there may be something you fancy doing, a good way of meeting new people and networking with the eventual aim of securing work. Sheffield's a wonderful place, and being a Hammer I know your allegiances will lie towards S6 not S2! Have to say as a Londoner and a Hammer, I moved to S6 end of this March and liking it a lot esp...its a lot cheaper for a season ticket for the football up here. good luck to the o/p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Big Sam's effective football isn't included in this!) Nice to hear your 2nd teams now Wednesday, with days like Wycombe last day of the season I can't wait for next season to start now!

themanfrom Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 Thanks everyone. Been here nearly a fortnight now, and having successfully completed the trials of working out shower/cooker/washing machine I'm continuing to feel more settled. I bought a supertram for £46 and am amazed at how late all the transport goes on - almost midnight! I've got to know my local area quite well and have found that Morrisons is the best shopping option and worth the tram and bus ride. I also went into a local shop the other day and managed to buy a small bottle of water and a Mars Bar for less than a pound(!) I'm now working on my CV as I await the arrival of some parcels that I sent up from Plymouth. I may have a little bit of part-time work coming up shortly too. I've decided that I will initially (at least) become a Blade as it's closer. Sorry Owls! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA786 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Good Luck on your move. I actually spent three glorious happy years down in Plymouth doing a degree. I loved the place, the people, the weather, the sea. After graduating I worked in the SW for a while, then London, but ended up back in Sheffield, the city I grew up in. I am sure you are doing the right thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though having said that I seem to remember that Stagecoach bought them all for about a quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerrangaroo Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 try the recruitment agencies - i moved to sheffield without a job and they found me one within 2 weeks. Ignore the doom-mongerers, there are plenty of jobs in customer service/admin/call centres about, not the most glamorous jobs but good enough to pay the rent while you look for something more suitable. Sheffield is a very easy place to settle in, loads going on and generally a very friendly place. loads of people move here for uni/college and never leave. Good luck! muahahahahahahaaaaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
