Salary payment advice needed

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

Dude, I'd have been outta there already. Why are you waiting? Another month like this is gonna be horrible. Hit up that director, give him the word that you're actively looking, and see what he can offer you. 

[Slowbee]

Thanks. 

 

With two kids aged 3y and 2months I am really not going to hang around much longer.

 

We were told that by this coming Friday the shareholders will know whether there is a possible positive outcome or whether we are in for 6 months without pay. Needless to say, I might be making some big decisions this coming weekend. 

 

A director of another engineering firm told me I would fit right in with them, I just need to give him the word and we can sort something out.

 

So I at least have some prospects, but many of my colleagues don't have that luxury, or savings to fall back onto, my heart bleeds hardest for them.

 

Things are really tough out there, allot of places mulling retrenchments, so don't want to end up where last one in is first one out...

Ummm your current employer has not paid you??? For how long ???

 

With 2 kids and you hoping they will pay you? What the actually heck are you waiting for if another company is offering you paying job !!!!!!!!!!!???

 

They have shown you ZERO as in ZERO commitment and loyalty. Actually total disrespect by no communication.

 

And you are waiting till the weekend ? Stuff thinking of other "perks" your current job offer things and think of your family.

 

Get the PRIORITIES straight.

 

TAKE THE NEW JOB !!! TODAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You miss the post where he said the boss was liquidating?

I didn't, but short-term he should still be talking to that other director all the time. Moving should be the only option. Liquidation doesn't change that. 

 

And - that was SPLAT, not Swift.

That was not me, other dude... Allot of okes in deep s% currently.

 

I hear you okes, I'll chat to that director again and see if we can get some sort of offer on the table ASAP. I am still hanging around because I don't have an actual offer on the table from anyone.

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

Annndddd....

Boss decided to liquidate the company.

Don't know all the details of how this will all wrap up with existing projects, but there are definitely more questions than answers at this stage

Jees, bro. Mehness. You got any prospects on teh horizon, P?

Log off from the BikeHUb, go outside your building and phone the director.

 

If the other guy is serious about talking, you will have an "interview" lined up within the next 5 minutes for either Thursday or Friday.

 

And if it is Friday dont forget to get a sick note from the doctor for your tummy bug as you cannot take one day sick leave on a Friday or Monday without a sick note.

 

I look forward to you telling us when your appointment is.

 

STOP STUFFING AROUND WITH THE FUTURE OF YOUR FAMILY !!!

At this stage I'd tell them to stuff that requirement / rule.

Swift&Aero, do you have an interview, based on the info in red ?

^What Slowbee said. Listen to him, there is no time to waste you have to do something now.

Is it a PTY LTD? 

Those are tricky things in that if you get audited the question is raised about if the business can make it another year from that point. If you answer yes and it doesnt there is trouble. Sometimes they have to make the call at that point and then it gets ugly from there.

I have been in contact with him, waiting for his feedback. I do have an interview with a different company tomorrow in the meantime.

:clap:

 

All the best for tomorrow.

EDIT: tomorrow is now today, what I am actually trying to say is good luck with the interview.

[Slowbee]

OK, so what happened Swift?

 

It is Monday, the weekend has come and gone.

 

What happened at the "shareholders" meeting ?

Sucky feedback, no money yet for salaries and there might not be any for the next 6 months, and even then the outcome is not guaranteed.

 

UIF is also not an option, as the bosses won't close up shop just yet.

 

On my side I am following up on any possible job opportunity, be it permanent or temporary, but things are really tough out there for most companies. Interview on Thursday went fine, but you can feel when things are not quite there, and I won't get my hopes up to get that job.

 

Thanks for the interest. We are still quite comfortable, plenty of savings to fall back on, just sucks to be actually using it instead of put more resources away for the future. Other people are not that lucky and needed to vacate their homes due to not being able to make rent.
