  • Hi Blondie,
    Good for you for staying positive, it's already happened to me 4 times over the last 10 years and my current contract ends on 27th Feb. I would start calling round the agencies immediately, another good site is the Guardian jobs website. If you can temp or take fixed contracts, definately go for that as well. The main thing (and the hardest) is to stay motivated, it's far too easy to get sucked into feeling low, but you're good at your job and an asset to any company.
    Good luck, I'm sure you'll be back on the 9-5 grind in no time!!!

    Hi,

    I just wanted to wish you all the luck in the world, I was facing this a few months back and although luckily I got through Im expecting it to come back again at some point.

    As others have said this may end up being a positive thing you never know what comes next...

    Good Luck
