  • I had some fantastic news!

    Last September the company I work for announced that they were making redundancies, a few weeks later I was informed that I was going to be one of them.

    I began the 90 days consultation and subsequently worked my 3 months notice. 2 days before I was due to leave I was called into a meeting with the head of HR and my manager, who informed me that my contract was to be extended until June 2nd due to workload.

    Anyway, Friday afternoon I was called into another meeting, only this time with the Director of Operational Support and my direct line manager. I was informed that I was officially being taken off the "at risk" list and re-instated. I've also managed to sort out an office relocation closer to home, so I'll be working out of the London offices, which saves me a daily 160mile commute

    I'm over the moon and had to share!

      It's such a relief as we have a little baby boy due in July, and I'll be supporting my OH while she's on maternity because her company don't offer an enhanced package. So being out of work was the worst thing that could happen to me right now

      The move of offices to London is really exciting too!

                              Mate, our 16 year old (girl) costs a bloody bomb! Thing is, wait till they hit you with the "I want a £100 per month allowance" - I'm like, when did you last do anything to hear the reply "I emptied dishwasher"!!

                              Bloody expensive dishwasher emptying service I can tell you that!!
