And remember the 90/180 day rule for those outside of the Schengen area.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Which is why we are going to loose the sick pay, and you lot think im the selfish one!


The longer this drags on the more chance of redundancies, but if the company goes bump, then we'd all leave empty handed.

Don't burst his bubble. Probably another one who simplistically equates "lots of sunshine" to " an ideal place to live". :crazy:

Redundancy :left: :left: :left: I hope all those dreamers are VERY patient people.

For pity's sake come on and for once, look at what is right in front of your eyes - you can't even get a new pair of uniform trousers now as there's apparently no money - and you REALLY think that they are going to pay out mega thousands to you in redundancy??

Thompson will only be too aware as to what the feeling is on redundancies and will be throwing a massive curve ball at that one.

Some of you really need to do an urgent reality check. Ask yourself a question: What does Royal Mail redundancy and the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow have in common?

Answer: You'll never get your hands on either.

I suppose it depends what function you work in, I'd say next to no chance in deliveries but possibly more of a chance in processing. Now where did I put that transfer request...
