wykikitoon 23278 Posted Wednesday at 08:28 Share Posted Wednesday at 08:28 Had a chat with my line manager this morning. I really feel for the bloke. He is clearly under immense stress at the moment and his very minimal support from above and below. A few weeks back I asked the MD if I could have a chat as I was concerned about my line manager. That never happened so it shows where he stands on the health of employees. For me, it's easy fixes that make a fuck tonne of difference. This company could be absolutely superb to work for, but the fish rots from the head as they say. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 24153 Posted Friday at 09:56 Share Posted Friday at 09:56 Good news. While switching job I hit the usual bureaucracy which delayed my resignation by a couple of weeks. Turns out that delay means I have managed to get my bonus as it was already authorised by pay roll. If I had resigned 1 day earlier I would have been cut out! Summer holiday all paid for now thank fuck. This is one aspect of the private sector I'm gonna miss. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 51041 Posted Friday at 10:01 Share Posted Friday at 10:01 Nice one. I left my last job with 50% of my bonus unpaid, and it was 50% of a bonus that I'd been owed for 2 years anyway, but they didn't have the funds to pay it (it was a start up). I don't miss working for a start up at all. Constantly wondering when the company's money is going to run out and we're all gonna be out on our ear with no redundancy was a shit sarnie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 24153 Posted Friday at 10:03 Share Posted Friday at 10:03 Probably a sweet spot between start up, established SME, and corporate bollocks. I reckon I'd like to work in a boutique company but not if I was stressed about next months pay cheque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That thing on the Letterman (also shite) with Kramer / whatever his real name is. Like Jerry Seinfeld can somehow absolve the bloke that’s comfortably the funniest thing he’s ever done and they’re both playing it completely straight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
