I had a bizarre one with my last employer.

I had already started planning to move th the Highlands, which would have meant me resigning from the company.

At about the same time, they decided to change my employment contract to make the notice period on both sides 3 months, where previously it had been 1 month.

Just as I was about to hand my 3 months notice, the company fell short of orders so announced they had to make some redundancies, so I volunteered and was accepted.

So i got redundancy pay, got to leave immediately and with 3 months extra pay in lieu of notice.

Result.

Until you are fully qualified, the best you can hope for if you want to work on the tools is as a mate for a qualified spark and progress from there. Until then, as I mentioned before, wash cars, cut grass, pull pints etc.

[SIZE=medium]I ran several businesses while working for a multinational company. What I was doing had no effect on the core business so they let me get on with it. They even hired me to do specialist work for them.[/SIZE]
