LK's Timeout

Hello fellow posters,

LK is leaving the forum temporarily because today via the radio and BBC I found out I am to be redundant. I need to focus all my efforts to getting a job before everything goes to pot. Also with a mental illness makes the search twice as hard. I wish you all well and hope to see you soon

oh dear! you found out via radio? not nice. My deepest sympathies, and best of luck in your search

Indeed. My Admin Assistant had the pleasure of spreading the panic and virtually killed productivity in the department.

It is a part of life I am afraid and I shall get myself down every job centre and apply on line to every job possible.

Thanks for the kind words MFC

lk sorry to hear of redundancy.

Mental illness is a burden many of us have to bear but little things like posting on this forum can be really therapeutic in that regard.

Hope things work out for the best.

Courage and best of luck!. It seems to be the trend nowadays, sadly.

Sorry to hear your news of your sudden job loss lk.

Such developments have, in some cases, been known to lead to better things, although I appreciate that might seem of little comfort to you right now.

My best wishes to you for the future. Hope to see you back here before long.

good luck with trying to find a new job buddy.

and to quote dr kelso ish
'ladies and gentleman i feel compelled to tell you that I do indeed fear the legendkillerv2, honestly is there anybody else with such a brilliant mind.
so please join me in basking in the glow of legendkillerv2's awesome fearitude! goodnight and goodluck!'

Sorry to hear about that - good luck. This is the only comment I can't agree with on the thread

All the best lk, I hope your search goes well.

It's quite obvious by that comment that you've not personally had to deal with such issues. Some of us have and the comment was meant for someone who might just understand the reasoning behind posting it.

I have not - if a bit of levity was misplaced I can only apologise.

Best of luck LK

I am sorry to hear about your misfortune. Try to stay positive and best of luck.

Oh thats not nice
All the best LK and hope we'll see you soon.

Bad news that lk. Hope you get yourself sorted out soon.

LK...

You have contributed immensely to this forum, for which we, as a community, are greatly indebted. We await the return of the prodigal son after the brief, albeit painful, sabbatical.

May the force be with you!.

Christianity? In the bible God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered. This is in the authorised version of events approved by the church. I can hardly imagine what goes on in the gospels that didn't make the cut.

Good luck LK and sorry to hear about this.

Yeah that stinks, LK goodluck and hope everything works out.

To be told such news via radio. What a shocking way to be treated! Stay strong. These are harsh times.

I agree with newballs in some ways. When you feel strong enough to come back I will do my best to distract you from real life problems...

LK- see you back soon. And all the very best to you.

What a hideous employer.best of luck.

Henman Bill, this is shabby. NITB posts a link that she hopes will be an encouragement to someone and you use it as an opportunity to mock her faith. Poor showing.

LK - I hope all goes well in the search for work and that things return to normal for you as soon as possible.

Disappointed in you there Henman Bill. Totally inappropriate remarks given the nature of the thread.

Fortunately God desn't exist. Unfortunately many poor people have been brainwashed from birth into superstition. It's probably the most serious problem facing humanity, blocking as it does meaningful progress in so many ways.

Bogbrush, I totally agree with you, but perhaps this is not an appropriate matter to discuss in the context of this thread?

And of course the most appropriate place to make this point is on a tennis forum, in response to someone trying to offer some encouragement to someone who has lost their job and has to deal with an illness.

But thanks for clearing that up for us. There I was thinking starvation, warfare, disease, environmental destruction were the major problems facing humanity but no, it turns out it's religion. Obvious really because the religion-free states - USSR, China, North Korea, Albania etc - are historically the best models for society.

H M Murdoch- what do you mean by saying that China is religion- free? I believe that that is false. Please give a reference.

Tennis anorak. "Religion-free" was the wrong expression. I doubt any country is totally religion free. I meant the government is atheist. You have to be atheist to be a member of the party.

But I fear we are on the cusp of a religio-political debate and I don't think this is the place!
