Found out today from one of my former work colleagues that the company i left in April this year (when i quit) has just given 50% of its staff compulsary redundancy notices & a further 25% of the workforce there have been offered voluntary redundancy - just in time for christmas & the new year

If only i'd stayed & put up with 6 months of general crap & shit as after the number of years i'd worked for them i'd have just gotten a very nice & very large redundancy payout by the sounds of it
