options on getting out

Post by shimmyrule »

When i read the propoganda, it says that employment is there for those who wish to stay with the business.
Ive said it before and will again, id leave this minute if offered a package- 21 years ive done, and fukin detest it, everything about it, the nobs who`
ve ruined the job and the dimwits who cant run the office.
Whats the options of getting away with a bit of a lump sum .What route can i take to get away from the place?

theres no danger im doing 7 to 3 next year, itll completely ruin me, my hobbies, my extra part time employment and me possibly keeping my home.

Any good ideas?

well said guv, i wish they would ask folk IF they want to work these new contracted hours, if not, the big golden goodbye and bring in someone who does want to work for them.
best option looks like depression, seems the only way out. :cry
