New Year, New Job?

My current job is based on a temporarily contract. It ended at December 31 but was renewed for another year. Before it was renewed though I started doing slightly different work in October. First I was under the impression I would also get a different job, you know? different salary, job-description, new contract etc. But it turned out not so. I only got more responsibility and work. What I liked but my contract wasn?t even renewed until mid-December. By that time I was already interviewing with another organization for a position. A very interesting one. Working 4x9 hour days so having an extra day of every week to play with iBaby! Of course I?ll loose some salary but not to much, I?m sure it?s worth it. It?s a IT Security job and for a Government organization. So with great benefits!

There?s just one problem. They still haven?t sent me the contract. So I had to accept the renewal at my current job where I now have a month notice. Before I can start at the new place they need to do a background check that requires two months, but I?m supposed to start in March. I just came of the phone with the guy that offered me the job and he seems very angry at his HR people for not sending me the paperwork yet. So now I?ll just have to wait again. Hopefully I get the paperwork this week and I can mentally start preparing for the new job. Right now I feel kind of stuck in the middle.
