Cat :(:(:(:(:(:( big hugs...what horrible news.

There are so many companies in trouble at the moment. Today our biggest furniture supplier at work has gone into receivership. Hopefully we will find another to replace them. The only thing is we have a couple of big customers who have matching furniture throughout and this may make a difference to us and we may lose them if we can't match their products.

Have a great weekend everyone. No MSE forums tomorrow! xx

Guys all I can say is I have been HATING my job for months, and this week I have decided (following the training I did last week) to flip this and not just in my work but also in my personal life - its early days but things have felt so much better already after a week. Yes I have my difficulties, as everyone does but its better (for me at least) to feel pumped up and excited about stuff.

I'm so glad you guys are so lovely and we're all feeling excited about life! x

Hi Determined,

Great idea - I decided to be positive in December and see the bright side of situations, people etc and it seems to be working.

Anyhow, you are an inspiration to a number of people on this forum and can be seen as a calming influence (and at times the voice of reason)

Thanks guys for all your lovely messages! xxx

No it came completely out of the blue, I had started looking for a job a few weeks ago as really started to hate my job but I have applied for extra jobs today and applied for JSA, Hopefully it wont come to that but just in case as they take forever. I am going to put my CV around on Monday and Tuesday and then ring some agencies on Wednesday. I have found a lot of the job sites to be completely useless, just hope something comes up soon as need another job quick!

Sorry to hear your news Catsmeiow. I'm hoping the door of good things opens as the door of old things closes.
