Maths might lose his job :3

By Elyxiatic on 21/01/2009
Basically I have a casual job at this discount store.
Been working there just over 3 years.
Found out today, our company owes the bank 96 million dollars.

The bank has basically pulled the plug and given the company 8 wks ~ 3 months to repay the debt owed.
Basically we're trying to sell the whole company to somebody else.
If its not sold we'll probably all lose our jobs.

Ya unsure.gif

Edit: Basically I use the money from the job to fund my uni degree. So ya.

Job's in the medical sector don't just like.... fall out of tree's in front of you.

I Work for the Local Govt. in New Zealand, and it is good stable work, but I have done the job before and I saw allot more competition this year when applying as people realised that working in retail wasn't such an easy option this year.

Good luck finding something to potentially reaplce that Job (I'd start looking now even if you havent lost your job) mellow.gif

JC is right, start looking now. Here in the US they need alot of people to work in the medical departments. They are always short on staff.

Lol heard about that today, that's what they get for buying out crazy clarks and other shitty discount stores.

By Kiwi011 on 21/01/2009
find another job.

Seriously, Jobs arent that hard to come by, especially one at a discount store. You may not like the job, but its better than nothing.

Dang thats a bummer, i recently got a newsletter through from my company saying that they are certain our jobs will be safe, we have alot of work coming up in the coming months.

Also even if we run out of work, they company could survive offof the maintenance side of things, just until things pick up.

By George on 27/01/2009
Oh wow, just saw this.
Unlucky and I hope everything gets sorted out, but how the fuck do they owe a bank so much? $96 million is a MASSIVE amount, maybe not in RS but in Real Life Geepees it is neko2.gif
Just be glad you don't have to pay the $96 million yourself biggrin.gif
