My Mum and Dad both lost their jobs today.
They both work at the same factory, there aren't many jobs available in this little shitty town as it is and now they have both lost their jobs.
The only upside, if there is one is that in total they will get £10,000 in redundancy.
I am planning to go uni in Sept and now I am going to have to solely rely on getting fucked over by banks and the government for money.
I'm going to be a male prostitute. ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.

Bummer.
Are you actually going away to uni or were you planning on living at home?
If you're heading off, maybe it's quite well timed, they could look for work further afield and not worry so much about moving. |

This implies to me that you were going to rely on your parent's for money.
Pay for it yourself, you can wrok full time in the summer and then have a part time job at Uni. Keep your outgoing's down. Cut down on stuff like drinking, smoking, take away's etc if you do those often. |
Well no, I wasn't going to rely solely on my parents for money, I was going to hand in my notice at my current part time job and find a full time jobbie where my parents worked after my exams, obviously now this isn't going to happen. I can still survive on uni, hopefully save up enough in the summer to pay for first term of accomodation and use the student loan, only when I need it. ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.

They told you it was a "vitamin" , does sound very easy nice money, if it messed you up i doubt they help you much though
i still would tho
re Jon:
Yea that sucks, my brother is at uni atm and when i go there will be a year of both of us at different uni which is going to be a real struggle for the family, not good
On the plus side, with the new system there is LOADS of finanual help, a "maintance grant" of £2700 if you earn under £15K household, reduced fees, burserys. Ill PM you with a website link if i can find it
Heres the link and see what you can get, is going to really help me ____________________ 99 RS125 --> 02 SV650s --> 03 Speed Four --> 92 RXS100 --> 93 CB400sf --> 01 CB600f Hornet |

Well, Well, Well.
My Dad has worked there for 20 years and my mum 10, the union has put forward that they get £1000 redundancy for every year worked there and that they get £250 bonus for every week of the 90 days they work there. This is very likely to go through as the company said it will do whatever the union would like to ease the burden.
This means that it is likely in total my parents will receive £48,000 in redundancy money and they have been guaranteed jobs at a local factory. Basically that is mortgage paid off, improvements to house and then they won't need high income as the mortgage will be paid.
Bottom line is, I might not get anything out of this, still little financial help from parents. I am just relieved that I won't have to worry about my parents struggling to keep food and a house over my sisters head. It just makes it so much better for me that my parents will be happy after a turbulent few days. ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.
