Didn't get the role I went for sadly.

Am drowning with work atm. Asking manager for more money tomorrow.

I'm sorry man. You got the skills to get another though, and I hope you get the raise you obviously deserve! :)

Thanks Spud โค๏ธ

has it gotten that unsustainable at the current joint? Damn! hopefully the outgoing boss might find need for you in a new role.

Everybody is leaving. We're going to be absolutely fucked as soon as we come back from Xmas break.

We are in serious trouble when those people finish up.

It's gonna get ugly.

Oof that's the worst when you're on a sinking ship. That sucks so much, after you had such a hard go between jobs and were so glad to land this one. How soon things change. I hope you manage to find more lifelines, it's great that you're able to think forward and do what's required rather than panic and freak out until it's too late (which is probably what I would've done lol)

It's disappointing because the owner, director and my manager are awesome.

But with everyone leaving the whole dynamic changes. My client interactions will turn hostile once I can't deliver what they need :(

[โ€“] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

have you sat down with them and asked what their plans are for such situations?

[โ€“] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The answer is "we'll work something out" fucking lol

That sucks. I hope something comes through soon so you can finish up before the new year like everyone else

Fingers crossed man. I've made a tonne of applications.
