I just survived a review a couple of weeks ago, and plenty have been given a redundancy from my project now. I have informally been told that I'll be dumped in June. I was hoping to survive until May next year so they would have to pay out my accrued long service leave.

AP??!

[AndyP]

Still hanging on.....just. Informally I've got until end of July now. Most of those jobs would be from my project though. Some highly skilled and intelligent people are being let go.

The 60 days is a bit of a joke though. Hardly anyone will get "re-employed" within the company in that first 30 days. Sounds like they are hoping you find a job elsewhere and avoid paying out a redundancy.

Good luck with this AndyP.

Just holding onto the opposite end of the spectrum then??

They still need plebs to get the coffee.

In these cost cutting times, the weekly fruit boxes have gone and now the pot plants. The coffee machines will be next.

[jaybam]

Good luck and i hope you can ride it out.

[markTHEblake]

Yeah its going to be tough without the coffee

[AndyP]

I can't wait for them to go, since I don't drink it, and there's a noisy ****er only a couple of metres from my desk.

I don't trust coffee non-drinkers.

[goughy]

Can't stanzya!! can't stanzya!

Liptons for me... I wouldn't trust admin either!

[markTHEblake]

I just assumed it was the coffee that made you so grumpy all the time.

[Jarro]

Is there anywhere else you could land a job locally ?

[AndyP]

I'm sure there's something, although there isn't much in the paper. I may have to have a slight career change just to get by until things pick up.

I'm not really looking at the moment, as I'm hesitant to give up 20+ weeks of redundancy for something that might not happen.

[goughy]

Maybe you could try something with a website! I hear they're all the rage...

We've lost plants, fruit boxes, newspapers (only 1 set per floor), tissues and biscuits. Oh, and a shitload of staff.

[BrisVegas]

what did the poor bloody plants do?

fwiw, we get filter coffee and thats it. If they take that away them I'm leaving.

[Fishman Dan]

what did the poor bloody plants do?

Stuff all for the amount of money we were pouring into them. They didn't earn a single dollar in fees!!

[AndyP]

Any potential work with Horsham, 69er?
