Nightmare..... lost a big contract......

I just found out that my company have lost a major contract they were bidding. It was the only job on the cards located at the site I'm based at..... so although I won't be made redundant I will have to work from Head Office indefinitely now.... and that is 1.5hrs away and will cost me £60 per week. So effectively I may as well be losing my job. Our current project ends this month.

I hate this industry and I hate working and I hate needing to work. I'm updating my CV just now, but am just so weary of hurdles I just want to scream and kick and shout.... and go home to my babies.

No real reason for this thread other than a vent.... feel free to ignore.

It's sold or I would introduced a special for newly loaded mumsnetters price just for you...

Well done! Have you told your dad to stick it yet?

Toothache - I'm fine thanks for asking!

I do hope you have your Mumsnet clause in your contract - so you haven't quite got the job yet until thats in writing

My Dad is torn between being happy coz I'm his daughter and being gutted coz he'll be left to actually do his job without me to bail him out or be his verbal punch bag!!!

Can't wait to put my notice in.

Sax - Alas I might have to get my feet under the table before I abuse their internet system...... give me a week!

buy us a drink then

Ah Custy.... I'll have to pay off my massive debts first! At least there is light at the end of the loooonnnnnng tunnel now though.

Then I'll buy you all a drink!

Mind you..... if you took an average of the incomes of working Mumsnetters... my new wage probably fades into insignificance!!!
