    Not football related at all, but I have been out of work since October and have just secured a new role. Quite why I am telling you lot, I have no idea but I am over the moon. Just had a really poor few months, but now, BRILLIANT!!!
    The Rs are improving, we are on our best run of form for ages, on an FA Cup run and I can look forward to a great 2013. Sorry for indulging myself!!!!!!

    Top man bruv, a little self indulgence never did me any harm......only when I 'indulged' just a little too much.

    Congrats Shefford, really pleased for you. I know what it's like to be out of work and it's far from funny.

    Yeah, good luck, Sheff. It is really tough out there - you don't me need me to tell you that - so it's no wonder you feel on top of the world having secured another role reasonably quickly. Hats off to you and I wish you every success doing whatever it is you'll be doing.

    I too got made redundant from my last role but then secured my current job and couldn't be happier in it bar the long commute. Really interesting business (alcohol :grin: ) and great colleagues. Oh and very very nice remuneration package :emoticon-0116-evilg

    Sometimes being made redundant can be just the break you need

    Well done Shefford!!

    Guys/Gals,

    Thanks for your comments. I know that sometimes I have been a little outspoken over non Rs related issues, and if nothing else, the last few months have taught me to have a bit more understanding of others, so I apologise to anyone I may have maligned. In answer to Stamfords question, I am a National Account Manager, which basically means I sell things to the 'big' accounts such as Tesco, Asda etc. I have been selling for over 25 years in one form or another, and next to seeing the Rs beat that bunch of chavs from SOUTH WEST LONDON (quite why they sing 'West London is Ours', is a constant source of amusement), nothing gives me a greater buzz!!

    U Rrrrrrrrrrrs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Excellent news, Shefford. If Tesco invites you to an client lunch, remember you may be licking a gift horse in your mouth...
