[kiwikrasher]

Yahoo!!!! Awesome Perks!! Stoked for you mate.

[Frankie]

Awesome news, never doubted you would get it for a second. Cool Vids, what's not to like about robots....

[Perkles]

just had my job offer confirmed in writing so ive handed my notice in,my boss has gone apeshit and I mean properly mental at me
Said the new company is a load of shit and unprofessional ,he then offered me the earth
I couldnt get him to understand i just dont want to work here anymore no matter what pay rise i get or benefits.If I am honest I am shaking and quite upset,ive worked here nearly 20 years and ive just been ranted at like ive done something wrong
anyhow its done now

[duke63]

Sounds like you are better off out of there, Perkles. At least you have a new job to look forward too.

[Kwacky]

I know you were apprehensive about handing in your notice, but it's done and you're moving on. You need to get out of that toxic environment.

Well done.

[rocket]

Well like you said its done with now. Moving on to a better brighter future.

[Blade]

Definitely the right thing to do Perks.

You have a great job and future ahead. Don't let your old boss spoil that.

[Perkles]

hes just thrown my contract at me and said it has a non compete clause stopping me going to a company in the same industry,.
fook me hes spitting feathers

[Kwacky]

Tell him you're going home to allow him to cool down and you'll speak to him tomorrow.

[C00kiemonster]

Sounds like a knob. Everyone moves on from time to time. Especially after 20 years. A new job will inspire you again, not just about the money.

Non compete clauses are difficult to enforce I understand?

[duke63]

Non compete clauses are generally very difficult to enforce.

Maybe he should have looked after his staff better whilst working for him.

[Frankie]

They are hard to enforce, but even so, he has been a bit of a donkey, banging on about how bad the other lot are etc... very unprofessional.
If he carries on in this fashion he might do you a favour if he is all humpy and let you go right away

[C00kiemonster]

On the bright side, you might get some garden leave . That's ace - paid to do fook all
