I hope those affected by the recession get work sorted soon. Its a dog eat dog world out there but good times are ahead hopefully.
I am lucky in so much that I have just got a pay rise although it was deferred from april until now. I don't want this to be a dick waving post or anything, but at the minute I am doing ok through the recession although working for a pub company things have slowed down quite a bit. Ie less Christmas bookings etc.

Good luck, Batch; as you know I have the same thing coming up in November, and I am proper scared. Move home and panic is my most likely at the moment, much to the disappointment of the missus... I predict a shit start to 2010!

I got a pay rise the start of the month and I'm being offered shit loads of over time which is great because its extra money and makes up for the money I lose seemingly being on bloody strike all the time.

So why are so many people at RM moaning if they're getting pay rises? |

Bit of a bummer. Quite. Works out a 3rd less pension accrual for a 6% pay-cut. I can opt out, but then I'll have no pension provision. |
