Phil..you're right about it being a growing club.. u just never think it's gonna happen to yasen eh?
lol @ jp... cant u move and get another job?? hmmm mebbes not.
ltgtr have u managed to get another job yet? unless ive got summat to go into, VR isnt an easy option.
No Matt, not public sector, and yeh i guess more hours spent to keep an eye on the rif-raf...thats what i 'like' about this job tho..i can sneak on here. lol
whf...yeh lots of time..but no money .. lol
act.. si thi ont tarn all steps.. hope i get more than 50p n pocket fluff tho!
ahh well it looks like i will either be in a lesser paid shit job..or out of work by the 14th July.. don't give me much time eh?
whf..thats a kind thought.. but so many people on here have already shown their kindness beyond bounds.
Besides, I'm sure I'm not the only one in this position.
Kaz...ths has happend to me 3 times now, so I am thinking of adding to my CV as a Competencity!!!!!!
It's a nasty situation to find yourself in and although ppl tell to try not to take it personal.....hell, we so do!!!
A possitive attitude it paramount as it an up to date CV...if you need any help with that, please give me a shout.

Thats what im worried about.. the whole re-applying for jobs thing.
I've been here 14 yrs.. inc 2 yrs on temp/agency contract, so i am totally out of touch with the interview process.. and to be honest it scares me to death
They aint giving us much time either..
5 July - announcement to staff on a 1:1 basis
7 July - further meeting with HoD and HR
9 July - expressions of interest in posts
12 July 9am - deadline for applications
12/13/14th July - Interviews
Decisions will be made by the end of the day 14th July!
Either.. welcome to your new post.. you minion.. or ..'on your way'
Sorry to hear about your job. Is your company going to offer guidance etc for those being made redundant ? They should help you with CV's, options etc. Speak to your job centre too regarding re-training. I suppose the small positive is you can maybe start a new career path if that is what you are looking to do.
Good luck and hope you get sorted soon
Thanks Tink
I dont think they will.. this is a pretty much common occurence. The restructures happen pretty much every other year or so. This is the 3rd time my postition has been threatened..but in the past i have managed to be ringfenced to a similar post..without interview.. but not this time.
I am seriously thinking of a new career, but have no idea where to start.. or whether i could cope with studying again.

Ahhh, long storey Karey, already had the first stage of my pilot training booked (After hiding for several months in Aus', ref' the ex!), so I didn't really want a job (The training was in Florida.) but the jobcentre made me do it! I was getting job offers on the 'phone. My qualifications/background are a touch rare though.
Hey Kaz...so sorry to hear your news and i know how you are feeling cos you know I'm just a step or two ahead of you. But like others have said, don't take it personal although it will seem like rejection...just stay determined to hold on to your lovely bubbliness and zest for life cos that's what will sell you to another employer.
Kaz ... if your about on here PM sent hon ... keep yer chin up, you have come back from worse !!!
Its not the end of something , its the start of a new adventure !!!
I am sure you will get another job, your qualifications will get you the interview then your personality will do the rest ... & just think then you will be able to use the redundency money to pass your test & get a big bike
They aint giving us much time either..
