    18 is about half, they are condensing 4 shifts into 2, they are reducing production from a 7 day week to a 4 day week :(

    Strangely enough all managers postions are safe :cool:

    Better not say anymore than that, they were all also told not to speak to anyone from outside the company, eg. Press

    This is something I'd be interested in too. I think Aesop's been looking into it, she posted a link a few days ago to a website that was offering upto £4.50 each... it offered me 1p per cartridge though so I didn't make a note of remembering the website, lol

    the website was only offering £4.50 for particular "rare" cartridges. It was offering me £2 for HP Cartridges, which sounds good, until you factor in I had to pay to send cartridges to them.

    Purpleroses suggested ebay and when I checked, someone was successfully selling the same catridges as me for £28! :T they had batched them but they were still making a profit!

    so check out your cartridges on ebay and see how much they are selling for.

    Mine are HP 364's... ones that nobody wants! :( They tend to go for 99p (and they're the few that actually get bids!). £28 is great! :T It really is amazing what some people will pay for, lol!
  • hi sweetpeas - I think your run time was amazing! Well done for doing it at all - and I think the girl in the office is probably just jealous of your halo and attention LOL
