The great escape : Today I take redundancy!

[bobafatass]

Best of luck to you. Working for yourself is so much better. I got out from my job 2 months ago and started my own business , I've never been happier at work than I am now.

Well after nearly 20 years service, today is my last day.

Don't feel sorry for me, I've been harassing them for voluntary redundancy since last October, thought I'd never get out as by now they had identified all those who fit the profile to go, I just made it . (Had to get out, its become a desperatly depressing place to work where most of my superiors are largly incompetant)

Going to try to build up my fledgling PC repair business, and study for some formal IT qualifications as at present I'm self-taught.

So its goodbye to aviation, hello to PC's (after I've put my feet up for a week or so as a well earned break )

Happy days.... just got to hang here till around 4pm or so ..... .... then FREEDOM!

I wish you the very best of luck with your PC business Maurice, My sons
joint administrator (IT) for admiral lord nelson school, covering several schools in the portsmouth area and has taken several micro-soft courses and is always going away somewhere for updates and other aspects, Im sure you
you wont need any help but if you would like to talk to him about any of these matters im sure he would be happy to help in any way he can,
God knows where he gets the brains from cos me and her indoors are as thick as two short planks, All the best, Ian

Definitely agree on the being self employed. More hours, more work, less
financial benefit, (where do all the bills come from?), but wouldn't change it
for the world.

Best of luck in your new venture, Maurice.
