Redundancies are being announced over tomorrow and tuesday at my work.
Work in the Construction Industry.
Already had my letter saying redundacies are going to be made. All i know is that they are reducing our section from 8 to 4 people.
Having a 9 week old daughter to provide for i am already scouting the internet for jobs if the worst happened.
Stressed or what :-/
-
Look Dan. It's no good worrying until it happens and once it's happened it's too late to worry. Don't worry.
-
mate real sorry to hear that.
best thing to do is hope for the best and plan for the worst. get yourself to the agency straight away if youre one of the unlucky ones.

Been there numerous times Dan, always been one of those paid off so I started my own business & then no-one to answer to but myself & the missus ;D
We've got everything crossed for you, so good luck :y

Feel for ya Dan lets hope it isnt you but dont forget it could be a mates job tho that goes.
Ive been thro it once and it isnt a nice experiance.... worst way to lose ya job as its no fault of your own/ choice to leave for pastures new.
-
Think if i didnt have my daughter whos 9 weeks old id probably be ok with it.
I enjoy the job and work hard for it. Like you say if it isnt me one of my good friends and colleagues will be going.

Hoping for the best for you Dan :y

That's the right attitude :y :y

I'm impressed with your attitude mate, it's gutting to lose your job, but you don't seem to be too downhearted about it. I really hope you find something soon, I'm absolutely sure you will :y
-
Dan, Sorry to hear your news and hopefully it will turn out to be another door opens as this one closes - Ref your company laptop - when you have your next meeting with the bosses just ask to keep it - once they reformat the hard drive so that all their licensed software is stripped off - It is either minimal or no value to the company and I have never left a job yet without taking the laptop - they usually feel pretty bad that they are letting you go so they let you keep it :y
