I've just found an email on my bosses desk...

Saying that my art director and I (I'm a writer) are going to be laid off in January to make way for 2 cheaper teams.

Tsk tsk.........what a thing to leave lying around.

Can't say I'm too gutted since I loathe it here...

...but if anyone DOES need a freelance copywriter... lol
