Feel free to vent, or PM, or email anyone. It's good to share sometimes. Take care, eh?

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Bucket, or should that be "Bouquet"? btw, am I the only one that pronounces it "Suzie Linux"? If not, then I foresee the possibility of terrible misunderstandings

She needs a bit of alone time after this weekend. It turns out that not everyone is an extrovert

Well... it's now unofficially official. I have been put on 2 weeks garden leave, and unless Manpower can find another role I shall be made redundant, unlike my oh so unhelpful colleague who has not. I guess it just goes to show that maybe always being helpful and going the extra mile doesn't actually mean anything at the end of the day.

That's tough. Hope it works out for you, John.

Aww, that sucks  You're clearly too good for them. I've got stuff crossed for another role or a large redundancy payout.

Having worked for them for just over two and a half years I won't be expecting a lot of redundancy, but I'm going to start making some calls now, and see how many people, (in the recruitment companies) actually remember me...
