Well after months of waiting we had our day of reckoning today,they wanted 80 redundancies,42 went of there own accord,seems the government has stepped up so we will work 9 hour days and get paid for 10 hour days,bit more complicated than that but thats the bottom line,that will last for 6 months and then things will be reviewed,if the goverment pull out then there may be more go but for now thats it,no more job losses in the next 6 months anyway,not a bad outcome really,have learnt to get by ok on 10 hour days but look forward to getting back to 12 sooner rather than later.Shifts remain the same 4 on 4 off,if anybody is moved it will only be from one dayshift to the other which would be a pain but better than unemployment.So onwards and upwards.
