But you took the time to comment on it anyway so it must have hit a nerve somewhere if not your funny bone!That is one of the most stupid posts I have read in a long time and not even worth commenting on.

It's interesting to note that the 2 individuals who agree with you are both public sector workers if I'm not mistaken.
Last August (2009) I lost my job as Production Director of a company employing 120 people. They lost their jobs too. The three people who work for me came with me when I decided to go it on my own albeit in a completely different industry. We got 1 months wages each after 8 -10 years service. It would have been nice to have the opportunity to turn down the sort of package offered to Becky but that's the real world. Although disappointed with what happened to us we faced facts and got on with it. We knew it was on the cards and made plans accordingly. We continue to work (VERY) hard unsociable hours all over the shop and pay our taxes so that the PS can choose to baulk at change and spit their soother out of the pram when faced with the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.
Thanks Gianni. PM me your address and I'll send you an autographed cheesey photo of me in my super-hero suit.
Leper I can't go casting the same unfounded aspersions around about non-nationals since my missus and, indeed, my 2 kids are non-nationals. Wouldn't be politic at all at all. Too busy to be bitter. Anyway to be bitter is a waste of nervous energy which could be better employed elsewhere (in grabbing the new paradigm by the short-and-curlies for instance).
I wish Becky well but who is going to employ a woman at 60?
Not being ageist, but that is the reality with thousands unemployed.

You'll probably get a lot less once the IMF/EU take full control.I'd get the €80 odd K as a severance package if I go now. At 60, my min retirement age I'd get €12K based on my contributions to a defined benefit scheme.
Sorry for going off topic on this thread.
I'm 40.

Take it and go to college to do whatever you want
The first offer is the best.
If you decline this you might be compulsory redundant in a few years and it may be statutory redundancy. Who knows what may happen in Ireland in the next few years.

Can i ask re becky, do the ps still get increments? I know there is a payfreeze but wonder if increments are still given?
12K is based on my 20 years of service and my current salary. As I'm pre 95 I have at this point no entitlement to a state pension as my employer was to pay me my pension.
If I continue to work until 60, my pension should be €24K, lump sum €110 or so, based on the current rules.
