I don't usually talk about my non-drumming life on this 'ere forum much, but after 12 years with my company, I'm getting the boot, along with six others.
Apart from being an experienced Sub Editor, I can also string a sentence together, so if anyone hears of anything vaguely journalistic job-wise, please give me a shout!

Yes, there's a cushion which will help - though it would've been more if the company wasn't dying on its arse!

ive been thru 2 redundancies. One was a decent payout, the other was barely 2 months wages.

Both have led onto something better though. These things normally work out well in the end.

I'd look at it this way, you've been with them for 12 years, maybe a change is what you need? :D

I hope it works out!

i was in a similar situation last year - 25 years service, so payout would have been very good. But with 2 wweeks to go i got a job at our head office - sometimes it`s not the money that matters.

Cheers, folks. Yes, it's quite often the push that's needed to move on in life when something like this happens!
Onwards and upwards and all that!
