Post by ldsposti »

Hi guys just back after 5 weeks sick a mate at work pulled me to one side and said he was talking to the dom last week and mentioned that he wants 7 redundencies in the new year, now before i went sick i had a word with the area manager and asked him what the situation he told me "no more in our office" our area rep has said the same , so who the f##k do you believe oh by the way there would not be a shortage of volenteers

It depends on the situation in your office. Are they cutting duties? Do you have vacancies? A whole manner of things. It is really what do they have planned for you.

Hang on chaps, I want full time hours, not part time. But got trapped into the eternal promises.......... now I am institutionalised.

We are not from another planet, not trying to take you over and not mad! (apart from the obvious) :crazy:
