O/T I got a promotion!

Josiep00, 1 April, 2010 at 11:45 Posted on Planning 0 11

EEeeek!

I'm not a career-minded lady but am super shocked and excited. The extra money will be so handy for our wedding plans ?

The college I work for has been going through a merger for 6 months, so we knew lots of redundancies would happen. we've been waiting for ages and just applied for our jobs/promotions. I'm happy, but feel bad for my colleagues who went for the promo too.

Ah well, Luxury suite at the hotel after the wedding me thinks ?

    Our company has frozen pay rises for yet another year. Underpaid as it is! OH was made redundant last year & managed to get a job but take a pay cut. He found out last month that the guys he's works with (& is equal to) are on £6k more than him!!! It makes me sick to the stomach, especially since one of the guys is appalling at his job & skives off at every opportunity.

    Roll on Easter weekend!!! x

    I'm sorry to hear that Joanne.

    We have a lot of similar things here with people who have been here a shorter time getting paid more than me, even though I helped train them! So hopefully things will changer for the better for your fella like they did for me ?

    Def roll on Easter!!

    How brilliant - what a great start to your Easter!

    I started a new job today (having left behind an unbelievably bad employer in what I thought was my 'dream job') and it just feels so good tonight.

    Really looking forward to, rather than dreading going in to work tomorrow (I'm working all weekend but really great hours so its pretty good).

    Have a real celebration tonight - nothing better than lots of chocolate, champers/wine and snuggles!!!!?
