That's terrible news Em, good luck with the interviews!!
Re: I've been a bit quiet, been made redundant
Like others have said, enjoy the rest while you can, I'm sure you will get another job soon and then you'll regret not doing as much as you can.
Re: I've been a bit quiet, been made redundant
Best of luck.
20-24 years in the same place?
I get bored after 6 years and the longest I've been with the same mob is 8 years.
Way I see it, a change is as good as a rest, but it's going to be a kick in the plums (lack of plums in this case is noted) if you were settled.

Re: I've been a bit quiet, been made redundant
Had the redundancy gun put to my head a few times over the years. View as a bit of break and then get an enjoyable new role, no point being down. After 20 years perhaps some new challenges were in order anyway! Longest stint I have done anywhere is 9 years.
Good luck with the chilling and then finding a new role.
Let me know if you need any help with a CV; I have done a few over the years

Re: I've been a bit quiet, been made redundant
I worked for a large rail renewals firm that went bust - 20 years gone in seconds along with all the contractual redundancy pay that went with it :(
Still 2 years on and a few contracting appointments later I'm in my dream job.
Best of luck!

Re: I've been a bit quiet, been made redundant
Good Luck Mrs.
I thought your 'old' bike was bling.
ps. I'm after another 'My other "car" is a Thundercat' window sticker but for mounting internally as the last one got scraped off in the snow and ice. Let me know if they are still available and how much.
Cheers
