Re: Virgin Media Closing Albert Dock

Today Friday 10th February was my last day with Virgin Media, I left the premises for the last time at 12pm.

I took my redundancy early as opposed to the official closure date of the 30th April but I doubt it will get that far as people are leaving in droves the majority with a new position.

Now all I need to do is look to the future.

Thank you for all your help in the past Peter. Virgin Media have shot themselves in the foot letting all the staff at the Dock go. You all deserved better.

Re: Virgin Media Closing Albert Dock

All my best wishes for the future Peter, you have been outstanding with your advice here on the Forum for what seems like forever. No doubt you will show the same dedication in your next position, I just hope that you will be more appreciated for it next time round.
Good luck...
