Default Email from my boss

You will all have seen on the news that Liverpool City Council is chopping 1,500 jobs.

'As matters stand at the moment I have to say that I do not think there will be any money available post March to carry on the current arrangement.'


Make it 1,501.


Great.

Ed - He sent you that news in an email and didnt have the courtesy to discuss with you via the phone or face to face ?

Always remember the saying "When one door closes, another door shuts".

Things are getting tough out there. Soz.

i agree, that is out of order, it is general courtesy to al least phone, but really should have been done face to face,

But again as has already been said, at the very least you have a good amount of notice.

Good luck with everything, hope you find a new job ASAP

It's not unexpected, the true surprise is that it has lasted this long. But change is opportunity, I firmly believe that, so I'm not too downcast about it.
