Great news, Diana.  That was really quick.

Stephanie and Paul - I guess I just don't like that terminology - to be made redundant.  What the heck is that supposed to mean?  It just sound so cold and clinical and insulting.  Like your job didn't matter or something.

Thanks again for all your good wishes and prayers all! Kiss

Ruth, I agree with you about that term "redundant", it's demeaning and sounds like they are referring to the person and not just the position.

Great news Diana! She deserves some good luck for a change.

Yes redundant is an awful term - and sacked is another term used - lovely!

What is the pc term for it? I think whatever it is called, it is pretty well depressing.
