Knees Knocking now_ Updated
 
:alien: Some of you know that where I work, jobs have been threatened since the takeover in Feb.
Well, they are starting now....:(

3 of the senior management called in so far today, and 2 of them to be made redundant:(

I'm not sure when I'll be called in, prob not till tomorrow....as 'finance & property' are first in line.

Some people on hols will be notified by post, as the 'honour' in the takeover agreement, is that they are to tell us by the end of Sept.

I just cant wait now...... :rolleye:

Perhaps they might not even tell me tomorrow - and I'll come home from hols to find a letter on the doormat.

Sorry, am not happy bunny today:(

Webby, you better make it somewhere decent for luncheon tomorrow instead of Wetherspoons mate

C,

Feel for you. It's been happening a lot at ours too. Not widespread, but a systematic picking off of expensive heads. Then not so subtle employment of cheap grads!

I'm hoping to last the year out, beyond that, who knows.

Just read "Who Moved My Cheese" in anticipation;)

I know hoe you feel Charlotte with a third of our company geeting made redundant last March.
Two weeks ago we were taken over by our main competitors and are now wondering where things will go from here.

I will keep my fingers crossed ck.


We will have a good blast on sunday (weather permiting) so hopefully that will cheer you up.:cool:

well, I didnt hear at the end of today...:alien:

AGE - cant wait mate - forecast is looking bloody great!
Are we leaving Gt Torringon towards Bideford & then A39 - or are we going x-country?
Will make a difference as to which way we come over on the Sunday morning mate.

C, off to sort out a CV:o

GsxrAge 15-Sep-2005 21:10

We could go x country or A39 It's up to you. when we leave bude we will go to Launceston and on to Tavistock and back up to Oakhampton.

Phew - big sigh of relief:D

got called into the boardroom 10 mins before I went home - and told I have at least another 12 months in my job:cool:
Feel sad that several colleagues are going tho:( - strange feeling, as am glad I'm staying but bad that I'm not going - if you understand:puzzled:

Can relax a bit more on hols now!:sing:
