I see that TipTopJob.com have done a survey showing "more than 50% of workforces suffer from the January office blues".
No offence to TipTopJob but I do hate survey's like this. That means than just less than 50% don't have "office blues". Surely on any particular day half the workforce don't really want to be at work. Also, with crash diets and alcohol withdrawal symptoms a few people are bound to be a little bit grumpy.
Luckily, so far, this hasn't been my experience. We're all nice and perky in the UK Recruiter offices and everyone I've spoken to has been cheerful and positive. There is also an awful lot of "activity" going on. I've got no end of meetings lined up (if you'd like to meet with me for a chat about plans for 2010 just drop me a note) and seem to have a lot of events to attend.
Next week I'm off to the Recruitment Juice Live Event. I've always had a lot of time for Roy and Matt from Recruitment Juice so am really looking forward to it. It's an event to "Transform the way you approach new clients and generate more business".
Along with the positive feelings and events I'm already hearing stories of business picking up - let's hope it continues!
