Bit of a pointless thread but anyway.
I've just found out thismorning that the company i work for is closing down the shop i work in, inlcudung a lot more as well. Right now i mainly feel angered with them rather than shocked, i always said that our shop would close sooner than everyone used to make out but i never thought it would be this soon ( ive only been there 2 years, 3 this october) There policy on this kind of thing is usually to find you another store to work from but having already shut another 2 stores last week all the vacancies they had around this are have been taken which pretty much means as it stands that we're out of a job.
I dont have any proper qaulifications or anything and the part that worries me is that i wont be able to find another suitable job where i can use what knowledge i have to benefit me so to speak. I am quite angry that they arre doing this but i do understand slightly why it may have to be done.
Dunno why im posting ths prob could just do with some advice...
