Balls. Going to get much out of it? Could be a decent chance to make a few quid if you manage to secure a job quick. Hope everything works out pal.

Irony is I've only just redone my CV

I'm a qualified Spark and also an engineer in a few disciplines but not looking forward to finding a job in this climate.

Also only been with him for 10 months so no payoff. Working till the 20th then on my own

luckily have the money from selling my VRS so got a buffer to pay the bills.

If you're an engineer in a few disciplines why are you wasting your time being a spark?

Not in a position to go at it alone?

I feel your pain sir.

Got made redundant at the end of January when my governor sold up and retired. I'd been there 21 months so didn't get a bloody penny. Gutted.

Got a less desirable job about three weeks later, but destroyed my back two weeks in, helping two of the lads hump heavy equipment about the place.

Been signed off sick with nerve damage in my back so i'm back to square one financially speaking as obviously I won't be getting paid as I won't be there working. Stuck indoors on all kinds of drugs now.

May need op to have a vertebrae removed apparently. Bloody hope not though. Waiting to see specialist at the mo.

Sorry Mister Nut, i'm hijacking your thread

How come you're not being paid if you were injured on the job?

I'd only been there a fortnight. It's not the kind of firm that does sickpay.

I might get SSP if they can process it, but not had a penny yet and it's been nearly three weeks.

If you were made redundant you are still entitled to a payout which in your case will be 1weeks money it's called notice pay you are entitled to it after working for a company for more than 1month
