Oh Dear!
So my PR&D was cancelled and my boss spent the day rushing around, looking very fraught. It's always worrying when he does this, he doesn't mask things very well.
Sure enough, mid-afternoon he called us all together for a briefing. The upshot is the City have a budgetary shortfall of £20m to find and are asking for volunteers to express an interest in voluntary severance.
Ironically, for me this actually means more work. We in payroll will have to pick up the extra work providing estimates and processing severance claims. Still, very worrying times.
