    I'm not a happy Bunny.

    after being offered the job i have been chased the agent for my offer letter and was told that it would be on the way by email, i called every day this week and was told that she had spoken with them and everything was OK and would be starting on Tue.
    got a call at 4:30 saying that they were pulling the offer due to cost savings.
    this is after asking me to finish a week earlier from my current job (I'm being made redundant on the 28Th)
    my current employer was OK with this and did not dock my money.(thank god)

    being told at 4:30 just before a bank hol weekend really take the biscuit,and made my weekend because i now have no job at all:x:cussing:cussing:cussing:cussing:cussing
