The company I work for is on the brink of going into administration. Brits will probably know what company I'm talking about (clothing retail). RBS has pulled out of talks with them and they are looking to sell one of their smaller chain of stores and have just announced intention to appoint an administrator.
I work for one of the smaller stores, that takes very small amounts of takings in comparison to bigger stores (relatively speaking, we do well, but we're also in the most impoverished shopping precinct in the UK, with 36% of unit vacant). I am almost certain our store will close.
My friend is a member of management from nearest big store, and even she is worrying about her job. If the company goes completely bust, I'm out of a job. If the company manages to save itself through streamlining, I imagine I'm about to be made redundant. I'm hoping for the latter because at least I get some pay.
I'm not as panicked as I thought I would be. I'm very concerned...you know...money and stuff...job hunting is fucking hard...
But I guess it also gets me out of my other various work-related problems
