One weeks pay under 41 per year x4
one and a halfs weeks pay over 41 x7
iirc, note there is a max cap on that 'week's pay', so it may not be as much as you expect if you're on a decent wage. It's up to your company whether they pay a real week's pay for you or the minimum required by legislation.
Nah I'm on a shit wage lol. I've been in for my meeting, and its how I thought. I'll get around 3 grand pay, and 3 grand redundancy.
Got to work 4 weeks, till Feb 3rd, then I think I'm done, get paid 7 weeks in lieu

actually in mi meeting i asked the boss if theres any government help the company gets for helping to retrain people being made redundant, he said no not the for the small number they were, its for larger numbers than 19 :(
I wanted to do a business course to start an online record shop :P

So sorry about the loss of your job. I hope your holding up well emotionally, that's got to be a big blow..
Mell you should so start a record shop/cafe with online business too. My gawd a record/cafe shop with a rock radio show that broadcasts live on Sundays from the premises!! People could come in on Sundays to drink coffee, eat snacks and and listen to you DJ. You'll be a star, and a hipters hero and who knows where that could lead.

Cool 1 out of 11 ain't bad I remember once when I was about 22 I applied for something ridiculous like 30 jobs in one week, and only one of them got back to me.....and I didn't get it :))
It's quite a long story, and I think I've probably told it in another thread once, but it involves me having blood all over my face during my interview and not even realizing it until I'd made it all the way back home, and I bumped into a mate, and he asked me WTF happened to you? :))

exactly, when i was full time doleskum i prolly got about 1 yes out of 18 years worth of job applications lol, so to get an almost yes from my very first reply is awesome lol
Im still shaking im so excited.
Its a CNC machining factory and not that many people have CNC machining experience so i think that might be why they fancy me. Ive got like 9 or so years of using CNC drilling and routing experience in the drill room where i am now. Although im a bit rusty as for the past years ive been needed in the wet area as team leader. But it soon comes back to me once im doing it.

I am so completely without a job I am absolutely loving it!
None of this "Go get rid of so-and-so", or "This person needs to be taken out!", or the occasional "This mark needs a bit of help in the money department. Make it so."
Oh, the stories I [couldn't] tell!
And so, this means I'm back here.
Best wishes!

PS No, I can't help you out. I'm no longer "in" the game. Besides, wrong continent, and all that.
PPS That's why I love it here. I'd rather just play the Speccy.
ive never set foot in an aldi....or a lidl, just knew there was 4000 jobs being created by aldi which wouldve meant my 6 grand redundency wouldnt have been eaten away by rent

Good on you !
When I was applying for various jobs about 20 years ago, I would get the interview, only to hear on the grapevine that they already had someone lined up for it and the interviews were only going through the motions. A real waste of time and money, I once walked for 30 mins through torrential rain, as the interview was in a place where I could only reach through walking, when I arrived I was pouring with water and was feeling rather smug as the job involved working outdoors in all sorts of weather. The job was perfect for me and I was perfect for the job, when I told a friend of mine, that very same day, she said what a shame, a friend of mine was given that job a week ago, I was gutted.
Every time I read that the oldest person in the world has died, I have to do a quick check to see it isn't ME..........
Yes, for sure.
But never give them the answer immediately. Make them work for it. Like, when you shake their hands, give them subtle hints of the weather. Perhaps have one sleeve drip water on their hands. Makes it clear to them that you really want the work, and that you are willing to work for it. And always leave a puddle where you're standing. Can't go wrong with puddles, I always say!

Who'd wanna work for a company where the colleagues don't have the civility to say "Excuse me, you seem to have blood on your face, would you like to clean up in the toilet before we start." ;) I bet they judge you on it too.

Actually, I know I don't like Aldi.
I'm ok with Aldi.
They are back in my amicable graces, and such.
+1 for the fact you have to bring your own bags.
-2 for the one way aisles.
Good on you !
