Just a little update on the work front, because I don't want to spam this thread with it: The company will be closed end of this month. We did have a restart plan and an investor, but apparently personal interest of group management blocked that option with the administrator, who took so extreme much time that clients had to choose other options for their orders. All so pre-orchestrated. But, it has no use putting negative energy in that now. First priority is now to go from the fact that every colleague did more than their utmost to keep our plant open. We can really say that no one can blame us for that, worked three weeks without salary and never complained, just kept running, to give the administrator enough time and serve our loyal clients. That is something to have the biggest respect for and it gives us a good sheet toward the future. We had a lot of press interviews, I sent an open letter and together with HR appealed to companies to convince them that there is no better qualified and loyal work force than ours and it worked. Over 200 companies reacted, offering job openings. Clients helped, stayed with us till the very end. So very heart warming. Those of you who know me, know I am no quitter, see positive in everything, beyond the limits of positiveness. And through that we also will get through this as well. No doubt this is a big blow after 39 years (probably 45 if I count the hours), but it ain't over till the fat lady sings. After a few months of rest and relaxing, I will embark on a new adventure and find new challenges. Never give up. One door closes and another one opens,.. for me, for you, for everyone. Never, ever give up! :red_heart: |

Quoting: CuriousSeeker Thanks CS and so true my friend. We have weathered big storms through life and if there is one thing I learned through that and from my mom, it is to never give up, keep an eye open for others and know there is a challenge in every threat. That challenge is to overcome that threat and experience that you will find strength and encouragement in your weakest moments. No severance package for us. No money left for that. At least not for our crew. It is all spent in useless take overs, which only generated management fees for the criminals at the top. But as said, one day they will have to account for that themselves. In present life or to the One above. Dutch social security is still better than in most countries though. In unemployment we get 70% of our last salary for two years, even though you are obliged to apply at least once a week and hold network talks. I at least have the luxury to take the time to find something else after a while. Many don't have that and need to find another job as soon as possible. After all, 70% of a salary that just keeps your head above water nowadays, still causes pain and struggle to put food on the table. And then it is great to see all that help from other companies. I also know that there are so many who have it far more difficult and our declining society does not make it easier, with cost of living, housing etc., only increasing, in that respect all things are very relative and it very much depends on personal situations. Three weeks without salary also forced colleagues to go to food banks. Of course no one wants to share that info, but I know of them. I have always tried my best to help where I can and I will keep doing that to my best abilities in the true believe that there will be better times for all again. I have seen enough examples of that in life, with colleagues and with friends, to keep the faith in that. Last Edited by InterMezzo on 05/12/2019 07:48 AM |
