Thanks for that Bad medicine.
Flying Dutch, thanks for your reply.
I guess deciding who to tell and if to tell at all is the most difficult thing at the moment. If the attitude I get from work is similar to some of the posters above then I'm not sure I want to tell my employer.
I think I would probably be the first person at work in this predicament (how being 1 in a million warrants making an effort to write a newspaper article about it I dont know) and I'm not sure they would have a clue what to do with me. Hence I'd be grateful to know if theres anybody out there in the same situation.
Alpha, I have already said that anybody replying need not give their name and can of course, just like me, set up an unidentifiable hotmail address. I can assure you I am thinking clearly and am continuing life as normal at the moment. Not knowing what to do jobwise is my major concern. I am aware of the rules, but I would just like to know if anybody has any personal experience of what happens next.
Thankyou.
