 Ah, hi-fi nut, that's harsh news on a Friday (not that there's any nice time, but hey...)

Sure they didn't deserve you and that a much better job awaits.

I find these things are done for a reason. Every job I've lost has had a much better one just after. Some people would call it Ka.

As opposed to Capri.

So sorry hi-fi_nut. I'm sniffing out for a new job myself. Good luck.

I was going to post some good news but after reading this, it'll be prudent to hold off for while.

That sucks, i'd suggest the pub for now and leave job searching for monday.... no use spoiling the weekend over it!

Hope you find a better one soon (i agree with JD on the next ones usually being better).

just don't go work for Morgan Stanley, they're rubbish.

Really sorry to hear that mate, these firms just don't realise what they have on their payroll.
