I know 7 people who have been made redundant in 10 day's and 4 of those had no idea totally out of the blue.
Another two people i know,1 is on a four day week and the other has had to accept a 15% pay cut

Bad news Steve!

Hope you get a decent redundancy package.
Cheers

A long shot, may be worth trying the defence companies, Lockheed Martin, BAE, Selex, MBDA et al they are still fairly boyant (theres a war going on
don't you know), the quality engineers that use to work on my projects were rubbish. Great thing about military land vehicles is the basic
engineering is pretty simple. Bet there are some vacancies somewhere.
Just don't talk to me about aluminium weld failures.....
Bad luck but hang in there and dont sell the car thats the last thing on my mind took too long to get to this stage
Ive been out of a job since january 16th done a bit in between if you know what i mean due to start a new job on monday for poorish money but keeps me
going till im set up with my new venture no more working for other people then
Dont think i'll be far behind you.
sorry mate hope you find something soon good luck
Does that mean no "free" parts for making electric reverses? The guy opposite me at work is being laid off in about 2 months. It'll be the seventh time for him.
I finish end of July, I'll be filling me boots with everything I can get me hands on
Sorry to hear that mate, hopefully it won't be too long before something else comes along. At least having till the end of July gives you some
scope to find something before the time comes....
Having a beer for you here....
Not good news... not a good time generally...
My daughter's in Australia, about 4 or 5 months short of getting citizenship. She works in a recruitment company, so you can imagine it's a
bad time for that business. If the company folds (and it might) then she has to come home as the supply of visas has dried up (all jobs going to
Aussies first, which is fair enough) with little chance of going back again.
Good luck, u2u in your box on a possible lead.
Sorry to hear that,
Hope redundancy is decent and something crops up soon

Oh mate thats proper sh1t, really feel for you, hope you get a decent package mate that'll tied you over until something comes up.
Cheers

Sad, sad news
I'm in the midst of it myself. Tighten your belt hard - you'd be amazed how frugal the whole family can be if you all pull together.
My wife has been excellent over it, and the money is lasting longer than I'd hoped. Still not had to sell any toys yet either!
There are jobs out there, I've been for two interviews today - just spend your spare time working on high quality applications, rather than
sending the same CV to 100 jobs. Well thats my approach anyway!
All the very best 
That's bad news, sorry to hear it.
I don't think anybody or any industry is safe. Except those who work in the job centers!
We have just had a change of management which usually means some of the workers will be getting the chop.
Hi Steve, dont know you but feel for you, hope all turns out good, we are fortunate at present but who nows whats around the corner, best wishes,
gezza
Sorry to hear the news Steve - hope you get through OK and manage to hold onto the car too (on the verge of selling mine after an enforced 15% pay cut
myself)
sorry mate! think am up at mnr this weekend to look at my car so if you are their i will buy you a beer at the local!
sorry mate
me too, i went end of march
just dead for project managers too
Hi Steve, bit of a blow that- just come on here after pile of marking - possibly see you over the weekend. There's got to be somebody who can use
your talents!

Sorry to hear that, it's a very depressing situation. Quite a few jobs going at my place too, we find out tommorow who is staying and who is
going
