This morning I was given notice of redundancy - my last day is this Friday. The school I work for is closing my department
I’ve worked there for 15 years & the current teaching staff is the best I’ve ever seen. Just outrageously good teachers. Students love us. We absolutely rock
Unfortunately, management did their jobs really badly, so now teachers are unemployed (don’t worry - managers get to stay, phew!)
This is how shocked Max was when I told him
@rufustheduck So sorry to hear this. Max is concerned. I suppose you can't start something with other teachers laid off?

@rufustheduck Sorry, hope you can find new job
Tagging with #GetFediHired in hopes that it might help!

@rufustheduck Sympathies, last place I worked the directors and senior managers made an arse of it. Of course they remained while a whole section of the company and dozens of us who actually had done our jobs well were all paid off. Fortunately it eventually lead me to a much better job at a place I love, hope similar happens for you, but it's still a kick in bum when this happens
-
@rufustheduck That's awful, even more so on such short notice.
Max seems to pick up the mood.
Wishing you a new job soon, one with better management!@canyakker thank you. Max always knows what's going on - even if he does often choose to ignore it
-
@rufustheduck I am sorry this has happened to you. Sending you good thoughts and wishes.
@CiaraNi thank you!

@rufustheduck
Good old Max. What department did you work in?@elliek English as a foreign language
-
@rufustheduck Ugh. Sorry to hear that. SO glad the managers are okay 🤬 I hope you will be, too.
Gosh, Max is handsome.
@StaceyCornelius it's a real load off knowing the managers are okay

@rufustheduck I'm so sorry to hear that. There's not much I can do to help, but I just subscribed to your podcast.

He's really amazing. Has he yet produced sime kittens to replace him?@nuwagaba2 he can't!

That really sucks.

Max is very cute, though 🥰@hewasaseidrbxy me and Max agree

@rufustheduck
I taught that! In Finland. In the 70s. I worked for an institute (teaching adults in business) and wasn't supposed to use any of their language. You should have seen my impression of a cobra (snake) when nothing else worked to get them to understand what it was. On the floor, of course!

Sorry, I digress.
I'm so sorry. I hope you find something else quickly. -
@rufustheduck good luck. Max thinks you will find a way through this.
@IanMoore3000 I'm glad he believes in me
-
@rufustheduck I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully Max gave you some extra cuddles today.
@wevebe he's taking care of me
-
@rufustheduck Damn, that's bullshit. I'm sorry. 🫂
@thestrangelet thank you
-
@rufustheduck Damn, words can't describe how sorry I am for you. Max is really gorgeous by the way.
@anotheridiotontheweb thank you. And he is, isn't he?

@LordWoolamaloo thank you! I'm happy to hear things worked out for you after you were also a victim of incompetence
