got the dreaded news yesterday, now on a 3 day week, fck anyway!

Don't know what I will do, they reckon it will recover in April, May

Anyone know where I stand as far as stamp and social welfare, never been in this situation before.

Thanks for help

i know nothing about welfare, but hte missus got caught out last year at the dentist for not having something like 9 weeks stamps missing as she was working part time at the time.
although i think they have stopped that now and if you work part time its counted as paying your prsi, as long as you have been paying prsi you should be fine.

but feel free anyone who knows better as ive never dealt with this stuff personally.
man utd fans shouldnt get either by the way, but thats just a personal opinion after last night

Na they are always looking for ppls. And if you think that a Systems Architect or a Techinal Team Leader are not experienced positions where were you working I think I will start in there as the MD

Go into Social Welfare. Explain your situation. If, with the 3 day week you are getting less than the dole (about €110 I think), you may be entitled to something.

If you will still come out with more than the dole, you may be allowed something (even if it only means protecting your PRSI).
