My sympathies. I was 'let go' 4 years ago. At first, I thought I would
kill myself or blow something up, but after awhile, I realized I had a
marvelous opportunity to do that which I had always wanted to do. And I
have. I am having a wonderful time. I hope it works out well for you as
well.

I wish you much luck with finding something else to pay the bills and to
occupy your time. Good luck!

Sorry to hear it, Shaun. I've been canned more than once. It's a
terrible thing. I hope you are gainfully employed soonest.

Shaun, I'm sorry to hear this (but glad it wasn't a serious health matter,
at least). Best thing that ever happened to me was getting fired from a
proofreading gig well over 20 years ago -- for being too much a
perfectionist! Eventually led to the rocketship to stardom that is my life
today...

Shoot me an e-mail when things settle out; I /know/ you want to keep the
Perversion Line open!

Best Luck, Bill

Look on the bright side, more time for riding. You'll find something
better in no time. I don't know if they have such a thing in the UK,
but suck up all the unemployment checks while you can.

Why is this stuff x - posted all over the place, take it to private email or
get a friggin' blog or something...

If I got sacked the LAST thing I'd do is announce it to a bunch of strangers
on Usenet...I'd be commiserating with family/friends and then buckle down
and look for a new job (or do *something* to occupy my time)...I frankly
don't cotton to getting "strokes" from strangers (except in *certain*
circumstances, heehee...)..

I think this situation absolutely sucks. The only thing I can say is:
"when one door closes, another one opens" and that has really been the
story of people I know who were in your situation. So, after you take
the time to grieve... pick yourself up - because you CAN do it again
- even if it means reinventing yourself.

Thanks, I'm sure I'll be OK. I've needed out for quite some time really, but
just never done much about it - now the decision has been taken out of my
hands - just what I needed.

LIGAF - this isn't for the ****ing strangers, dumbarsed idiot - this is for
those on Usenet who know me and care, you utter ****ing ignorant gutter
dwelling jerkwad.

*FIGURE* into this, that most of my E-mail address book is *on the company
****ing PC* so this was a great way to let those I know who Use the Usenet.
Self rightious jumped up innefectual little prick...

You are amasingly myopic - you can't see past your own 'I' world or even
understand that there is one. Now go on - **** off and get a clue
somwehere - I think Wallmart has a 2 for 1 on them ATM. Be sure to wash your
hands first so they don't slip from your grasp though.

Heheheh, well we get 'job seeker's allowance', but it's a pittance, and is

That's tough.

Advice?

There are now several of you with capital sums. Consider
getting in touch with one or two with whom you worked
well together. Propose a joint venture. Buying a franchise
is a useful first step if you're short of ideas. Meet as often
as it takes to come up with a business plan, making sure
not to commit the total amount of your funds. Work out a
sum that will keep families etc ticking over, not forgetting
that benefits are available. Take your business plan to the
High Street. Having chosen a business (franchise perhaps)
that you can show is viable (bringing in enough to provide
the partnership minimum income with potential expansion
based on the 24hr committment of the partners - ie you're
the driving force and the work force) make your pitch with
all the facts to hand. I recommend you look into businesses
that have low labour costs, allowing you to take on staff as
soon as possible - in other words no mothers in law etc in
the mix (unless you're Asian of course in which case ignore
this post). Catering franchises are a very good choice for a
working investor or partnership. Profit margins are set high
and the potential for cost savings throughout is useful. Ask
any accountant.

Note: The majority of workers made redundant dispose of
their money as money. Sales of cars, domestic appliances,
etc., booze and recreational drugs immediately rise steeply
in areas where local companies go under, the skew lasting
about a year.

Good luck.

Indeed, but welcome, in many ways - it's a kick, but one I have long needed.

Again - thanks - good to know we can butt heads but you have more going on
than just being a butt-head ',;~}~

Your advice so far is _appreciated_.

I have E-mailed myself your post to mull over some more - we were only a
small (family) company, with about 12 employees at the time, all of quite
different backgrounds and with diverswe personal interests, and I have some
that I have been looking to for a future for a while, so I would need to
give some thought to partnering up with anyone of the others. As for
catering, well, I am a lover of cooking and food, not to mention a fanatical
grower of chiles and lover of all things chile related - been looking at
making this something of a business for a while - now, I have some time to
invest, finally.

Now, as for booze and recreational drugs - I am familiar enough already with
such, and have no need to increase my uhhhmm, knowledge of such because of
the sitiuation.

The moneys may be paid to me as a lump sum, or as a weekly 'wage' - I do not
know for certain, yet, but either way, the same portion I have already been
allocating for such, will go to bills, household financial obligations etc.
*PLUS* some more, the rest will be used well, and invested in future
returns, one way or another.

Again, thanks.

Heh heh heh, think you would make a good salesman, eh?.... that's like

Seriously, keep your "old" chin up - you will find something good soon,
I am sure.

My hubby makes a fantastic chile, garlic tomato thing to go in or on

How did the jerked meat go by the way?
Good luck in finding a better job, take a few weeks if you can afford to,
and get something you want to do...
Selling chilie products in Barnsley?!!

Cheers Andy.

Sue? I thought I'd said in my OP, that this was a family company, owned by
my dad, and that it has folded/gone bust? - He's lost everything, gets no
redundancy pay etc. and has been trying too keep it afloat out of his own
pocket, to the tune of several grand already. Suing is not only impossible,
it would be morally reprehenisible.

Once anyone enters a thread it becomes their thread. It follows that
any demand for exit be a request rather than an order. Thus, I
decline your request and your offer.

Shaun, I empathize. I have been there, and it wasn't fun. But like
others here, in the end, I found good alternatives for my job. After the
first shock wears off, I wish you lots of ideas and inspiration and a
quick way to something new.
