Well, after 17 years with the same company. I find out the 22nd of September will be my last day.

So having only just got back on 2 wheels there may be a Suzuki Bandit for sale.
This has never happened to me before so its a bit of a shocker but, as one door closes and all that.

bad news Lawless. When it first happened to me bit of a shocker, but after the fourth time kind of got used to it! Have found that sometimes it's a good thing as it spurs you on and opportunities come along if you've got the right mindset. One thing I found that there are lot of useless time-wasters around and if you've been employed for 17 years you're not in that bracket so fingers crossed you'll be looking forward with a smile, a grin and a helmet on soon

One little tip, a lot of HR departments these days are scouring t'ineternet to see what they can find on people- you might want to google yourself and see what they'll see, before they get to see it.

Hope you find something soon.

Bad luck, but itâ€™s a sign of the times I suppose--although that's no comfort to you.

17 years must be some sort of record in this day and ageâ€¦ Back in early 2009 I found looking for a job was a fulltime occupation that in the end didnâ€™t bear fruit. However, after pulling my hair out and getting myself in a right state, I finally took the opportunity to â€˜diversifyâ€™ and itâ€™s the best thing that I have ever done, although financially Iâ€™ve never been so poor

In my extremely humble (and totally irrelevant) opinion, look upon it as just that, an opportunityâ€¦ and keep yer chin up!

Crappy news mate. I hope you get a new gig sorted soon. Good luck.

Leaving a job when itâ€™s not YOUR choice is never a nice thing and I guess after 17yrs your allowed to feel a bit sorry for yourself, but donâ€™t let it get you down for long these things usually work out for the best in the long run, opportunity often comes from adversity.

My advice would be to book a â€˜last minuteâ€™ holiday take the wife/girlfriend off somewhere nice for some R&R, forget all about work and come back refreshed and ready to find a better job than you had before.
