@Hilly,

I might look for something else too if the circumstances were different. Right now there pretty much isn’t anything else available in the area, plus I generally like where I work and that’s important to me so I’m inclined to ride it out.

@-E-,

It IS gut wrenching! I would so rather find ways around that emotional turmoil even if it meant tightening the belts at home.

I have been duly nudged! I will try to rectify my slackitude ASAP

There is no question about it, I would rather take a pay cut or go without an increase in pay if it meant I and others could keep their jobs. Its never easy to let people go, particularly when it is for financial reasons and not necessarily perfomance. Having had to lay people off just recently, its just gut wrenching.

PS…didnt you just nudge me recently for not emailing? Here’s your “nudge” in return.

If I could afford to live on the pay cut, I would probably take that and then secretly look for something else behind the scenes. Hilly´s last blog post..A Challenge That Puts You In The Driver’s Seat!
