You are here: Home > Change your Career and Life Change Your Career and Life. Do it Now! “Oliver. You’re late!” My boss Carl barked at me. We had scheduled a meeting to run through the current situation on the recruitment sales pipeline. I checked my watch, sure enough twelve and a half seconds late to be precise. God this guy is anal. Should I say my bus was late? Do I actually care? “I’m not late” I protested but the boss had already started off in the direction of the meeting room. Great, I thought, another pointless meeting. I could predict the out come before it even began. I would sit down, be bombard with random questions designed to get my day of to an bad start. Why does everything in the corporate world have to be decided by meetings? As I follow Carl into the boxy interview suite, I can feel my hangover biting. Why does he always have to pick on me at my most vulnerable: i.e. eight fifteen and twelve and a half seconds on a Monday morning. Most reasonable people would at least let me get a coffee first, he must be loving this. And Carl is loving it. Probably because destroying his office colleagues’ moral and esteem is what he lives for. The next 20 minutes was a blur of over used office jargon and clichés and it was about the point he uttered “there is no I in team” at that I had an epiphany. What the bloody hell am I doing with my life? If ever there was a time for action it was now. And so for the first time in my career in I did something worth a damn. I quit. If this sounds like a familiar story, it is time to act. There is a world of opportunity out side the walls of the office, and with these Xtreme Gap programmes, you can come away with qualifications enabling you to change your career, and life for the better.
