Cakov. .. .I was lucky enough to escape redundancy but lost many good friends and I am not alone in saying that I wouldn't hesitate to forfeit the agreed pay increase if it meant that just one employee such as yourself was saved from redundancy. Sadly that is not going to happen and your issue of not wanting to see the pay agreement implemented would only have an effect on your former colleagues who merely want what was agreed with the company last year. I understand that if the pay deal was agreed now it would be a slap in the face of those made redundant but it was agreed a long time ago. Would us not receiving the pay increase that was promised to us last year really make you feel better?. .. .I sincerely hope that you and all others unfortunate to lose their jobs find employment asap as we lost some fantastic people, but I also feel that the pay deal should be honoured.. .. .ES <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
