Should be in Moans & Groans - where is it?

[Chillum]

Just lost my contract of 6 months with no 'effin notice. Gits.

They agreed about two months ago that I could work a 4 day week which would allow me to move to Wales.

Spent the whole of last week in North Wales looking for a house, found one and we were pretty chuffed. Then all of a sudden on Monday the 4 day week was going to be a problem. One sales meeting later and I find out they're not renewing my contract and fare thee well.

I absolutely ***KING hate that people have that kind of power over me - I need to start running my own business.

The worst of it is that my wife has been depressed for the last two years and this move to Wales has motivated her to look forward to the future again, but now it's been trashed by some arse-wit.

Seriously pissed off and upset.

Not good bud, really sorry to hear your bad news.

Hopefully it'll all work out in the end though :thumbup

Thanks, I just needed to get it off my chest. Well, that was about 1% of it but kids frequent this board so I didn't want to overdo it

Easy to comment from the comfort of my arse but the maxim that has got me through similar experiences is this.


Nothing in life is EVER as bad, or conversely as good, as it first appears.


Maybe karma will smile on you and the move will reveal new opportunities??

Thought you'd only recently moved house, or was that a couple of years ago and since then you've been an unsociable twat again? :lol
Why Wales, you'd be near Kev!!  :lol
Seriously, you've been dealt a shitty blow mate, sorry to hear it, as are the sheep in Wales, but, hope this cloud has a silver lining for you. :kiss

[Chillum]

Thanks Dilligaf (I've just tried pronouncing that in Welsh and, well..let's not go there - I need to clean my monitor )

And yes Tim, we had only moved here recently (year and a half). You'd expect it to be quiet a mile down a country lane in the middle of fields, but no - it's like Luton cocking airport.

Managed to blow the mothballs off the bike and go for a ride yesterday, and that didn't even help that much - it must be bad

I'm trying real hard to see what Karma has laid out for us this time, and how it was probably a blessing, but it still means a lot more effort with a high probability of it happening again (seems to happen to us a lot for some reason).

In other news, I hear the FSM now has intergalactic appendages as well as meatballs..

I think I'm going to pray to his noodly greatness from now on
