In jeopardy of being made in jeopardy...

[Will]

I've been told I'm in danger of being in danger of being made redundunt. They've basically told us all that we are probably going to be given 90 days consultation around January. I was kinda expecting this, but I'm a little surprised anyway. Bah.

 

[GDW]

Every cloud has a silver lining chum

 

[JBP|]

Sorry to hear that, if it were me i'd make the most of Christmas then start job hunting with a vengance in the new year.

Having said that i might just do it anyway.

 

[Will]

I'm pretty much hanging on for the cheque. It isn't a fortune, but its better than nothing.

 

[Paradroid]

I suppose it depends on how much the redundancy is, compared to the salary in a spanking new job.

Unless of course your real name is Tony Blair, in which case fuck off now.

 

[Ashala]

if a Super Moderator fears something, we should all worry!

 

[Lazarus]

in the same boat here Will.

Went through a "Work Force Reduction" a few months ago and was safe enough. Now the Company has thrown in ANOTHER WFR and noone knows who its gonna impact.

Fannies!!!

 

[throdgrain]

I was made redundant on saturday, after 13 years :/ At the moment Im sitting here without a clue of what to do, the dole or insurances wont give me any money as they say I have enough already.
Happy days ...

 

[Trem]

Generally things like this always end up for the better in my experience.

Each day as it comes lads, don't worry.

Throd move yourself up to Stoke and go work at D&K, you would all live like kings with the money you would get from your house.

 

[throdgrain]

A bit off-topic, but read this thrread I saw about D&K, I like em already

[TdC]

damn. I feel for you guys and for myself tbh, as I just survived a WFR :/

 

[old.Tohtori]

He who waits for the end of year, after hearing the possible loss of job, drinks soon out of paper bag.

Go job hunting now! I mean NOW. Stop reading this and go allready.

If the company issues the warning, their going to let people go and that means, anyway might go and if you wait 'till x-mas to find a new job, chances are you're still out of a job roll february.

heh good read that link

I love the way the bikers all start offering to come up and help the guy at the shop. I have a mental picture of 30 power rangers barging into the dealer's armed with rucksacks and helmets

 

[Trem]

As some of you know I live in Newcastle-under-Lyme and D&K is about 10 minutes from me, I visit there fairly often to poke the bikes and because my mate is a biker.

I am telling you now if those guys off the forum had turned up they would of had their arses handed to them, I know one of the lads who works there, hes a jock and hes huge. Actually he used to rent dvds from my shop, one day he returned his films then left as normal, we opened the case to check all was ok and inside there was pics of his mrs in sexy poses and not wearing much, oh man we ripped the piss out of him so much for that, god knows why they were there and he said she would twat him if she ever found out.

Off topic I know but I'm bored.

 

[throdgrain]

I know Trem, I was serious when I said I like them already I cant imagine anyone staying a member of a GS500 owners club for very long, they are without doubt a shit shit bike that needs setting fire to
I said all this on the thread I discussed it on, but got a most holier-than-thou response
Anyway. Redundant. No work. Bored. Lots of money. Cant spend it.

 

[Calaen]

Go touring...

 

[throdgrain]

I just got back from touring France, to return to work and be told this.

 

[Will]

Poor Throd. I've been expecting mine for ages at least. Though I've got to work at least another 6 months here.

 

[Tom]

Do what mate?

Think he was speaking to Trem
