I don't think they'll be paying "death in service"...![]()
Just done a gig where 400 people were outsourced. Exactly the same circumstances. People in their 50's working in the IT department. Been there 30+ years

I reckon a running jump off the Grand Canyon would be an exciting way, or sky-diving. Something that ends instantly and painlessly.I'm undecided on how I would take my own life (if I was inclined)
Jumping from a roof, falling off a boat, throwing ones self under a train, pills, wearing a KKK outfit around Brixton?
Not sure if I have a preference..
Sweetie, if you wanted out, I'm sure there would be no end of people only too willing to lend a hand
It'd be like being beaten to death by a limp-wristed guy holding a fish.Is 'Death by CUKKER' suicide?

Ohhh - dunno - I knew a guy at Lloyds/TSB who topped himself (at home not on the job) and said the same thing to his boss - but it seems they pay out DiS no matter what!!I don't think they'll be paying "death in service"...![]()

Would that be the Leeds offices? I worked there for two years and while the open center was a nice idea in practice it meant you got all the hot air and cooking smells from the cafe going up the middle of the building and into all the office areas.
