As for everyone else I'm sorry for them all.Indeed my sympathies go to everyone else facing redundancies at the moment.
Yes, I obviously can't post the exact details here, but it's some help to anyone who can relocate.

I have taken the long-distance relocation option once before following a buy-out so I am well aware of the long-lasting implications, especially for those with families.
I find the statement "they can move if they choose to" to be lacking in any understanding or empathy for the implications of it and I find the attachment of a smiley to that statement to be both highly patronising and, given the evident lack of understanding, misplaced in the extreme.
Totally agree, Chris.

Personally, I have a chance of a job with VM more close to home. Fingers crossed!
