so you're getting sacked and you've become redundant. how so? how does one become rudundant?
is that like some nice way of saying you're worthless or is it something like we don't need you because we pay you too much and your skillset just isn't worth it and we've hired someone younger?
no offense, I'm actually interested in knowing.

take some time off and learn to cook for example then get another job, you need a stop-gap.

it means they are downsizing from a 3 man department to a 1 person, part time department.
it means they are reducing overheads.
being made redundant is different from being sacked. they can legally do one but not the other.

so it's a f*cking legal loophole is what it is.
BS

well, now you can have a fresh start. or go on the dole for a while and then have a fresh start.
don't despair; you'll be better off in the end, i reckon.

(Feb 7 06, 08:41)pfft. simple. bring your gal along and flog her at king's cross for a month or two. that'll give you a bit of a cushion vis a vis the rent and you can take your time looking for a job that'll be fulfilling and challenging.
