Copious Free Time
Jan. 8th, 2008 12:56 pmI've just been made redundant.
Some paperwork bullshit to occur over the next week or two before it's official, but the bomb's been dropped and in a company this small, the paperwork is just a formality.
Time to tidy up the CV I guess.
Edit:
People keep asking 'why?' on IRC/IM/etc...
The company failed to get as much funding as they'd hoped for in their current round of financing talks. In combination with a very noticeable drop in the amount of work they have coming in, it was belt-tightening time. They decided that my position was the most expensive thing that they can limp along without until the workload picks up again. I'm told I'll get a good reference etc.

I'll keep my ears open and if I hear of anything i'll drop you a line.
