Yes, it would make a nice little
story.  The college loves to have stories in the paper although they
usually involve the principal shaking hands with the mayor.  They managed
to keep a story about 2 members of staff kidnapping man and holding him hostage
on campus for 5 days out of the papers…

Sounds like a good idea and I hope that works out.



 





However, if you don't keep your job, I think you should consider
going to the local newspaper and tell them what you've told us, ie, about
excessive high-level appointments etc. A decent journalist would love a story
like that and at least you'll be making it tough for the smug tw at ts you worked
for.

Thanks for all the well wishes.

 

My colleague and I have decided to propose
“job share” where we cut 50 percent of our hours saving the college
the same amount of money.  This will still enable us to cover our
mortgages and help us sleep at night.  We’ll have to see if THEY
agree to it. What stupid is that we both do different jobs with different
skills, so they’d lose out if one of us left and would end up outsourcing
some of the work!  

 

The man who is making all these decisions
was recently appointed Vice Principal from his previous position of Director of
Finance.  The college has a £500k deficit.  Surely this has something
to do with decisions he’s been part of – but all the little people
are paying for his mistakes.  Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?

 

Cheers,

Janean

My sentiments echo Folk's about Janean's situation. Really
not fair to her or the colleague. 





Greed is infuriating.

Sorry to hear about your job situation, Janean.

They've been doing the same where I work. All of we plebs get furloughs and
wage decreases while the upper eschelons keep banking it.

I am now almost earning less than I did 6 years ago.

Don’t know yet.  Our jobs are
going but they are creating new posts for people to compete for.  I will
have to compete with my colleague (who’s also my best friend’s
husband) for one new post.  There’s enough work for us both to be
busy full time, but they don’t see it like that of course.  It
doesn’t matter for the man who made that decision because he’s on
£75k and can sleep pretty soundly at night.

 

Wankers.

 

Sorry for the OT moaning!
