Final note - there is a BCCG (BA Connect Consultative Group) meeting with WW on Tue 7th along with representatives from all the Unions and management to thrash out the finer points of what this means for ALL.
Fella, I was you the last time this happen to you... 40 Redundenceys(SP) on your head is one of the worst things that happned to me. so much anguish and upset all on YOUR plate... I hope you get more support than I did...
I crashed my car one morning after a night shift which i was hurt enough to HAVE to stay away from it all (quacks orders) and I believe that had I not the whole 40 people losing there jobs thing would of probably killed me.
Make sure you have some one else who can share YOUR problems with, dont keep it inside like it did, it ruined me and my life for a year - depression wasnt the word
I know that you have one or two individuals with you who played this game with me last time, dont go down with out a fight... even if the "managers" answer every question you pose with a question....
I hope that the unions do better with you than they did us. I dont think that I actually made any difference to the proceedings, just made life harder for myself. and made the upper management look like they were doing the right thing.
I wish you, "the team in your broom cupoboard" the guy girls out in the open plan and every one else that connected to that place I once loved!!
the very best of luck!
PS... I still have the Horse!!!
