If you're spooning

and prof's swooning, twig is crooning...

...I'm going to invent booning!

I don't know what it is yet but I don't want to be left out.

I think Twig

was supposed to be the crooner

That's what I said!

Anyway I'm going to start booning practice now.

Sorry, a bit distracted

We are being told that we are all being made redundant. I'm just waiting to be called in. I'm clearing my desk as we speak.

Hope it goes OK

Oh yeah

desk clear - check
personal stuff removed from PC - check
loins girded - check
B3ta Cache deleted - still to do (last minute)
Get another job - oh shit, I knew there was something I'd forgotten

I'm sorry

I was made redundant 3 months ago, are you ok?

(

Well not really

but I'm trying to put on a brave face.

There are 50 of us in the same boat (the entire Cape Town operation).

Right now I'm just focussing on the fact that I don't have to get up early for a while and trying to forget December's mortgage payment :/

Happened to me twice previously

Both times it worked out fantastic!!!

It's not always the wortst thing to happen.

shit when you're going through it though

(Northern Blerk Have I been here before?, Thu 21 Oct 2004, 10:14, archived)

thanks guys (honestly)

I know. I have found in the past that when something like this happens, you move on to better things.

I thrive on change and believe that people like me don't end up in the gutter.

sorry - had to wander out for a moment there.

Poor you pot, don't let the bastards get you down. Take their redundancy money and set up a competing firm and then run them into the ground, buy up the company and make them redundant!

(

Prof UnderCover evitable, Thu 21 Oct 2004, 10:26, archived)

I've only been here for 7 months

my redundancy pay is not even a week's money!

We were taken over by a yank firm and they have sent in the trenchmen.. bastards
