i've got lots of washing to do, one load is on the line and another load in the machine

well i've been going through my wardrobe trying on, as long as it stays beautiful weather i've got a few summer dresses and skirts that are still ok. haven't gone through everything yet through as my arm was starting to ache putting clothes on and off, Ben was my guide saying you can't wear that mam its miles too big
so i've got another 2 skirts and 2 tshirts to ebay
and i was getting into skirts that i haven't worn for a long time
and they fitted comfortably
So i think i'm ok for clothes for another few weeks hopefully 
measured my belly this morning, i've actually lost 3" from it!!!! :eek: was a 44.5" when i satrted now its 41.5" :yippee:Boiler pot £30.92/£10000 -
Thanks Katsu and Scaredy,
Basically, because there is massive changes to the station as wellEmpty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
Hi Bun, I don't think you should be so hard on yourself or so apologetic in the email. Perhaps something along the lines of:
Following recent conversations regarding revenue I am concerned as to my position within the station. As you know I have been working hard to increase the revenue I generate and hope that my hard work will soon pay off. However, perhaps you would be able to tell me what the current state of affairs is and where I might stand. I appreciate the support and help I have been given and would therefore would be grateful to have the current situation with regards to revenue generation and potential redundancies clarified for my own career planning.
You have been working hard, Bun, so you can afford to be honest about your worries but still strong.

I agree with Jo, although I'd be tempted to do it in person with someone if you can rather than email.
Bun, I'm sure you're looking around at jobs already..? But nothing to stop you applying for anything decent that you see.Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -

I second that - doing it in person would be a good move, it makes it much more personal. Management often find it easy to disassociate people from emails so saying it to them face to face might give them pause.

Thank you for your kind messages, it's bought a small tear to the eye.
Lou - happy birthday.
Bunny, you'll find something I'm sure you're a smart, intelligent woman and you will find another job.
Claire, well done on the weight loss.

Bun I would definitely speak to your line manager about the situation..although to be honest they're not likely to tell the truth because it would mean everyone would abandon shipI'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

And to make a bad day even worse, I've got to look for a new Dr's practice.
I had a bit of a thing with a Dr before I met my OH and he's now going to be working in the practice that's opposite my house! I suppose it's good he's told me, saves future embarasment!0 -

I'm sure that's not true, Bun. I used to work in sales and I found it incredibly difficult as I am just not a natural at it. (I'm terrible at anything like that - haggling at a market, can't do it!)
Even now, I have to try and win projects for my department and I find it a real challenge. I am not a hard sell person, I find it very embarrassing.
If you are going to look at other jobs, would you be staying in the same field? Maybe having a look around would be a good motivator for you - not least to get away from Miss Nasty Pants.
