I remembered that day I was standing in a careers fair, flogging leaflets and information about joining the company I worked for. My Blackberry alerted me to an email from someone named “Noreply”. A strangely common name that every company seemed to have an employee with that name. A little more than 8 months ago I had that interview. It was an email that I had to read twice, then thrice and then whatever word means four times. Unbelievably, I will be a GamesMaker for the London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics.
Cycling Team FOP, I had no idea what I will be doing. After a lengthy investigation revealed that FOP actually stood for “Field Of Play”. I still had no idea what I will be doing. Everything was irrelevant because I will be a GamesMaker. The next summer, I will be in the Olympics!!
Then nothing happened for another 3 months.
