Thanks, all. I really appreciate it.

My boss has some company at the moment, but I am going to see him again after they leave. One final round of negotiations to let me go when I want. Should that fail, then I have alreadytalked to my solicitors, and they will get involved. Rock 'n roll!

Best of luck and I hope you don't have to start any legal action. However if you do, I also hope your new salary will cover it all!

Congrats fellow fwiffer.

It's always and exciting time coming to the end of one job to start another and even nicer to do it at your own volition.

I know it's somewhat different, but when Mrs Rovark was being made redundant over Christmas, she went in on January 2nd, was given her final confirmation of redundancy, taken to her desk to pack up her stuff and escorted from the premises. She was paid in lieu of her notice period. I think they just figure a disgruntled employee can do so much damage, especially in these computerised times, they're not worth keeping around.

That's pretty much par for the course these days. In fact, she's lucky she had an opportunity to clean out her desk instead of being asked, "is there anything in your office you need shipped to your house?" It's so easy to steal information that any company that doesn't IMMEDIATELY get rid of someone who's been terminated is being rather foolish.
