Alfonzo 19-12-2008 12:18 PM

2009 is going to be an interesting year. Weird times we live in. Good luck to all those finding themselves unemployed.

telboy 19-12-2008 07:08 PM

There'll be no high street stores left at this rate!!:o

stegger 19-12-2008 07:25 PM

Must admit going to work this morning knowing i still had my job felt GOOD :) Glad it's out of the way now before christmas and not having to worry about it over the holidays. I felt sick yesterday and it wasn't nice seeing the people who had got a letter saying that they were being made redundant:thumbdown: On a good note the office tonight looked like it had been RAPED :woot::woot::woot: somebody even pinched a strip light:lol::lol:

AndyF 21-12-2008 04:57 PM

Oh Heck

Guess they will have to lay you off after all now, to replace the strip light!

DCM 07-01-2009 02:04 PM

Next were 7% down on Christmas takings of last year, M&S are laying off.... more to go I reckon in the larger chain stores

losixxx 07-01-2009 02:30 PM
