Bea, honey, hang on until you get your redunancy - then you get lots of money AND a new job! (Depending if you qualify for it of course).

Dearest Bea,

A nice "parting gift" to give your boss when you decide to leave would be to find a box of tea (nothing fancy, just the regular old stuff), wrap it up in a nice package with a note that says "Enjoy!"

I'd be tempted to 'spill' the tea where it could do most damage!

Because the finances are so bad the company is only giving the minimum to the staff being made redundant.  In my case, I would get a month's pay and 2 weeks' pay for my 2 years in service (3 years in november).

The manager from yesterday had the cheek to call me this morning and said: 'you know what your first job is this morning!' I remained pleasant and said 'of course, I'll make him a cup as soon as he's in'.   My boss has actually gone down south this morning so he only came in for 30 minutes  Then the manager said 'Bea, offer him to take some bottles of water for his trip'.
I couldn't believe he had to rub it in after yesterday.  

My boyfriend had a great idea last night. If I could find a job and ask my boss if I can take voluntary redundancy without telling him about the new job.  That would be great and I would feel I'd get a bit of my own back!!

Don't forget - when you get the cracking new job and have to do a "handover", make sure that tea-making is listed in your duties.  You could even offer to show the boss how to make it ..... (snicker)

Bea

A good friend of mine had a real bad boss who made his life a living hell.  His boss was in his mid-fifties and had abolsutely nothing going for him, whereas my friend is a dead-ringer for Brad Pitt (he REALLY is ! ... more importantly, he's a real nice person who would do anything for anyone).  A case of green-eyed monster .....

As my friend worked as his assistant (he was a trainee solicitor), he had no choice but to be amiable with this creep.

Finally, (after putting up with this turkey for 4 years) he got another job.  Here comes the good bit ....

He presented his resignation letter along with a lovely cup of tea (which the creep expected every morning) .... but not before doing something totally gross with the rim of his cup.

Think the WORST thing ever a male could do (you get my drift don't you!) and double it.  Heee heee heee!

My friend said the satisfaction was immense ... especially as the whole time the creep was 'enjoying' his cup of tea, my mate was witness to it.

Gross ..... you'd better believe it!!!

Good luck Bea and remember .... revenge is sweet and what goes around comes around !

Bea

I can't believe this guy, he should consider himself lucky he has you at all and make his own damn tea!

You should check out i-resign.com the resignation letters might give you a few tips for your own (v funny), it also has job search facility.  

Thinking positive thoughts for you.
