Sorry to hear that, Nick. Happened to me in January last year, so I can sympathise. Strange feelings at the time - mixture of sadness at leaving after 17 years, coupled with the pleasure of being able to decide my own destiny for a while INSERT INTO post VALUES (decent pay-off helped, mind).

Take a little time to think about what you want to do before you dive back onto the treadmill. If you need someone to discuss worries/concerns/ideas/ with, PM me.

Don't let it get you down. It's never anything to do with you, it's always someone playing about with numbers. Stay confident in your own abilities and try not to worry about it.

Best of luck,
Brian

Oh no!!!:confused:

Chin up mate, my thoughts are with you...

There must be a better job out there that will appreciate your contributions and efforts far more than this company!!!

I agree with everything that is said up above...

Just take care, breathe and take one step at a time....

Cheers,
Pescha!
