Now time for a quick read/catch up with a [STRIKE]bottle or 2[/STRIKE]nightcap

    :eek::eek::eek::eek: just came out from a small meeting with boss - He is making us redundant:eek::( tbh, we were expecting it, it was just a matter of time when he is going to shut it down or offer the company to us.

    Everybody finishes on 21/12. Except me & my colleague end of Jan.:( Unless we can magic out some dosh to buy up the company.:o

    Me said if we (myself & my colleague) buy up the company, I wanna get rid of 4 trouble makers. Boss said no can do:( if we buy the company we have to buy the existing staff too. Me not want it, they can go & find a job in that case.

    Myself & my colleague will start a new job elsewhere with another company hopefully by Feb.

    So sorry to hear about your job. I know you were half expecting it, but not at such short notice:(:( I hope the other job comes through for you, otherwise you may have to take a job at the swear shop:eek::eek::eek:
