Bit short notice isn't it?

Good luck with sorting something mate, a lot of people in the same boat at the moment but I'm sure you'll find something.

Probably something better.

Well keep your chin up fella, I've been there twice in recent years and often it can work out for the best. Me and Chuff have managed to find jobs in the last 6 months so it should be a walk in the park for you. :grin:

You heading to see Craig as well?

@ Rhyso, it's a crap position to be in but stay positive! You never know what is round the corner, in 12 months time you might be doing something you enjoy even more, and you'll look back at this as a good thing :wink:

Steve - I'm a service manager for a diesel generator servicing company

Things are back up in the air again as myself and the woman I work with had a long chat with the other owner of the business.  Basically he's well pissed off at how my boss is handling the situation and wants answers to a lot of questions

This is going to get messy  :lipsrsealed:

Well the last month has gone fairly quickly and as of today I'm now unemployed.

Really strange situation between the two owners of the business.  The cnut boss has apparently been sorting out the sale of our contracts and helping the engineers get other jobs with another company.  However, he's done all this without consulting the other owner  :undecided:

All still very much up in the air as to what's going to happen but if the company is going to continue, albeit under a different name, then it largely hinges on whether or not the engineers go to work for the other company.  If they don't then I might have a job again but I'm not holding my breath.............

Highlight of my day was the look on my cnut boss's face when I told him I didn't want to have lunch with him  :grin: :grin:

Anyhoo I'm off down the job centre Monday.  Although if you're in South Wales or near and want to make you car go faster then let me know  :wink:

Tempting as I'm in South Wales this weekend :evil: My high mileage engine (158K) and almost knackered clutch would probably disagree on the way home knowing my luck :grin:
