Yep thats redundancy, my boss wrote 11 pages of why their idea was flawed, I wrote 6 pages backing that up, intermediate developer did the same. All of it pointing at marketing being shite, the web team solely has doubled the leads over the last year. Marketing ran a competition last month that go zero entries.

End result - marketing gets they want, a wordpress site or similar that will fuck up the brand completely, outsourced. Good luck with that being integrated into salesforce.

I have so much to rant about here,that I'm not going too I'll save it for a different post.

Hey I'm losing my job too. I've got a 3 week reprieve because they've not found an agency that can do everything the team do yet. hahaha. good luck with that.

Form an agency with the other guys from your team and bill double.

Was just about to say.. opportunity just knocked. Get the door!

Had thought of that, but then we'd have to do every crazy fucking thing marketing came up with. However, they would have to wait 3 weeks for it so maybe they'd rethink their shit plans in that time....

They’ll end up hiring your team back as a cost saving measure.

yeah, but we'd obviously say, fuck you. Because being stabbed in the back deserves retribution

No, it deserves a surcharge and significant contingency fees plus you get to keep the new clients you’ve dug up while you were free cos who wants all their eggs in one bastard

Even better, form an agency and work for the competition, because you already have a track record in the industry. (On a more serious note, it’s worth seeing if you can get any non-compete clauses taken off as part of the redundancy agreement ).

Right. This has got completely out of hand.
There's no way this will work at my place so we need to find another location. AUCKLAND GEARFEST!!!

Cappy, would the space we used last time at Corbans be available?

Any other suggestions appreciated.

Or we just do one amp at a time.... no need for all to play. I'll see about other venues, I just thought your place would be 'intimate'

A bunch of SLO’s and equivalents in my house would be intimacy of the Black Widow spider variety.

I can happily not bring an amp. Just a stinky old Gretsch, a manky old Martin, and a reverb unit.
