Mate, I'm genuinely saddened. I really hope you're position is safe without any cuts in wages or anything. Nothing selfish about wishing your own ass safe, you got 2 kids/ a young 'un and a baby, a wife and mortgage too. I know how it feels, okay I made the choice as opposed to being forced (well I kinda was) but I still feel the pinch. Good luck with the meeting Tom, but on the bright side... If you do get paid off, then maybe your mood will be so low that I can maybe beat you in WaW

Best of luck mate.. My work is doing the layoff rounds at the moment. One Admin staff yesterday, Project Managers next week and the Manager has already been told his job is now defunct and he has to apply for another position. I think I'm safe, but I'm not counting my chickens until it's all over. (I heard yesterday that analysts reckon the amount of layoffs will drop around Easter (second week in April)) |
