Sounds like they have been as good as they can be about it which is cool but i guess it still a bit of a blow really aye.
Will have my fingers crossed he gets a great job soon.

it sounds like they have been upfront about it all with you both, which not a lot of employers would do. it sucks it isnt the best news (afterall, a steady income is the best news) but the steps they are putting in place sound so positive, i am sure chovy will have a fantastic job offer before long.

good luck with the next 6 weeks to you both.

Hey guys (dodgy thread by the way - disappearing and reappearing like that! I thought I was going mad! um ... mad-er )

I'm really glad that chovy's work have handled things well for you both, though I imagine it's really disappointing. The only thing I would say is - chovy, stay positive that there is something much better for you out there, which is not going to be so demanding, because it will be what you do. It will have the benefit of allowing you more time with T and the girls, and it will be better quality time because you will not be so stretched/stressed/pressured/tired.

All the very best with the job hunt - I hope it all works out really well!!

I think its sounds like everyone (them and you guys) have handled it really well. Its obviously disapointing, but good to stay positive and think of it as a stepping stone to something better.

Am sure that the perfect role is out there somewhere for you!!

Ginger you're right on the button there (and not just about the thread being dodgy lol). DH has been trying so hard to fill the rather demanding role he has, and he's been working 8.30 - 6.00 or sometimes later, with not much of a break at lunch either. So I've told him hey now you can enjoy working there without pushing yourself so much (but not un-working either), work 8.30-5.30 and actually come home for dinner and see his kids before they get tucked in at night (which is hit and miss at the moment, and something he's been frustrated about).

So after all of that, I didn't even reply . Anyways, what I was trying to say before OHbaby! rudely interrupted me was that it sounds like Nat's employers are really impressed with him, otherwise they wouldn't be investing so much time and effort into finding him a new more sutable job. And I get the feeling that Nat's been awful stressed lately, so this could work out to be a blessing if it means he can find something more suited to him, and that allows him a wee bit more time with the girls.

This has been the most of the stress Emma. Even though he now needs to look for another job, in some ways I think he is feeling a bit relieved that he no longer has to try to fit into this job.

its awful when they can't fit their work load into the hours they are paid for. DH will be happy he will get to come home to you and the girls at a decent hour.

Although my Dh is in IT and thats the way of the jobs for most. He has just started a new job closer to home and not so demanding so he will see rhyley before he goes to bed as alot of nights he wasn't.

Good luck on the job front and at least now he can concentrate on getting a job he wants and suits him better.

Wow what awesome bosses. sorry it's not better news but it sounds like they are being really positive about his time at the company. It just means that there is something out there which is the right job for all of you and this role just wasn't it. I'm a great believer in things happening the way they are meant to be, that there is a reason around the cornor
Take care, enjoy your extra time together with the girls

What a great way for them and for you two to handle such bad news!  Like everyone else has said - sorry you've had to say 'bye' to that job security, and I'm sure that a more suitable job will appear in time.  That can't have been a nice meeting to sit though, even though they were nice about it.  How are you two feeling about it today?  I'll be praying for a good job arriving soon

Well (speaking for myself here) I'm mostly ok but I'm also a little bit anxious because I know it's a hard job to look for in Manawatu but we both don't feel it's time to leave (yet?).
