    Meeting is over.. As predicted, not much info.. Management is creating a special email address so staff can voice their concerns.. Oh great, that just means they are too scared to speak to us face to face.. How pathetic..:mad: Looks like we will start a 10 month consulation period..Just what I needed..

    Mrs Positive here. You didn't want to be there in 10 months anyway, maybe this will be the push you need to find a company who deserve you.

    That said, I know how awful it is to have that hanging over your head. My thoughts are with you & Princess :grouphug:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    !!!!!! Froggy,

    You need to get back up to Scotland! The world has gone horribly wrong since you left our fine shores!

    As an aside - that little threesome / gang rape pacman never fails to amuse me...

    Cheers,

    Oh no! Feels like the threat of redundancy is hanging over most people at the moment. Hope it all works out ok for you.

    Even more reason that we are making the right choice in overpaying making hay while the sun is shining!

    Good luck Froggy at least you have advanced warning :)

    Froggy look what happens when I don't get chance to catch up for a few days. Hope the bite wound is healing ok. Sorry to hear about work issues too. My ward has been 'closing' since last December and the uncertainty is the hardest bit. We know they will find us jobs but no one can tell us when and where. I hope things are resolved quickly and redundancies don't happen.
