Monday Week 11

It would seem that the FAA are happy with Boeing's approach to their repairs after the fire so we should be flying again by the end of the year. This has now caused panic as most of the office will be on extended holidays.

I had an interesting email in my inbox today from the head of graduate development today. Apparently as a reward for our performance over the last year a small group of us were offered the opportunity to do a placement in Bangalore. This would start in January, but since I have my next placement lined up already I had to decline. Plus, from the stories I've heard of RR in India its not the sort of placement I'd enjoy. They're very protective of employees, everyone gets are personal driver and permission has to be granted to do anything; it sounds too rigid.
