In under two years I am again facing redundancy with the same employer

FUCK

I have to fill out a feedback form to fight for my role. Out of 18 of us, only 6 will get to keep out jobs.

I cant fucking believe I busted my ass for the past 6 months working towards a promotion when all along these cunt motherfuckers knew that this was going to happen. they just wanted to wait till after the xmas holidays before announcing it  

the feedback form is a joke its a mere formality, we know theyve already decided whos going to keep their jobs.

so so stressed right now, wasnt expecting this at all

:( :( :(

As someone who has just gone through the exact same thing, you have my sincere condolences. And unfortunately, the above is 100% true. Everything they do now is just for show. They have already decided who is staying and who is going. I knew I was being dropped and didn't bother fighting for my employment (which is exactly what they wanted) except I fought for my position to stay open for the shear fact that my department needed and still needs the position. The feedback fell on deaf ears though.

I did the same thing. Worked my ass off, interviewed for a permanent position, got it and then 9 months later they drop me along with a swag of other people.

In my situation they gave me 0 support (despite saying I would get contacted from several different departments). For some reason I was never apart of the union despite 3 fucking attempts at joining (every time they failed in enrolling me due to blatant incompetence.) I Had to fight for every word of help. Most of it given from colleagues and friends when it should of come from the work place itself.

Right now I am signed up with 3 different recruitment agencies and have a daily routine of checking every single job site.

Fist bump. <3

Well im typing out this crap feedback shit about my role and what exactly it is i do.  my original job description when first hired was 3 lines long, now as i type it out its getting to 3 pages.  I pretty much assist across the whole company and am the only one to do so.  while it may sound like a positive thing im assuming the reason for cutbacks is to keep the cost down and someone like me would be requesting pay increases etc so they may choose to keep someone who does basic work but is cheap.

i hate uncertainty aye

It sounds shit, but that's exactly what they want you to to feel, because in the end they will be expecting you to just want an answer whether it's the answer you are hoping for.

Sucks hard fairy.
But keeping the negative 'youre fucked' theme going in here, the fact that you're good at your job most definitly means you're going to go. Someone a little higher up who's a snobby bitch and feels entitled to her role will be shitting their pants because you're better than them, and they'll axe you to keep their job.

Bucking that negative trend;
Chin up soldier. You never know what the future holds. That's a good thing IMO.

It generally sucks when you are better at the job, then the people higher up from you. Rather than take advantage of the fact you are good at the job, and can make them look good as well, they instead feel threatened, and do what ever they can to keep you down.

But good luck with the fight for your job, fairy.
