Voluntary Redundancy

[motorbiking]

Do you tow it or is it part of a van ?

Unfortunately they can choose not to select you as the criteria usually relate to positive work skills like attendance, length of service etc. You may be a victim of your own spin. It doesn’t stop you going solo however.

It is just the thought of getting a big payout that has enticed me.

The Russian will spend it in no time.

It is part of the van, it is a max reach of 15 meters so rarely do we need higher reaches, when extra reach is required we have our forrestry dept that we borrow those types from.

You don't need it, do you?

. Can they do this and not accept my application?

Yes they can. In these situations, the best people are always the ones who volunteer, whilst the duffers, who wouldn't be able to get other jobs, are desperate to stay. Your employer will.want rid of the duffers though, and so the situation becomes the opposite of what the employer wants, and he ends up offering more attractive redundancy terms to the duffers, which annoys the top tier workers.

Leave it on the drive, and don't try getting it in the garage.

Be careful, though.

Not everyone is suited to self-employment.

That is the impression I got. When I expressed an interest to my line manager of our dept, he said he was shocked but that he would not be willing to take my application, I said that was unfair so he said he would take my application but doubts it would get past our big manager for approval.

Good job you avoided the cliches, being let down, coming back down to earth with a bump, going up in the world, elevated to higher status, etc.

I think I would be suited as my work ethics are so amazing, I go anywhere do anything at any time day or night at the drop of a hat. I love work and enjoy the rewards of my ethics. Top tradesman and top earner is just the way that I am programmed

But the saying, it’s easier to get a job when you have a job is very true.

Those aren't necessarily the skills you need for self-employment. I thought you had said previously that you didn't fancy it.
