jobs

we are all in it together. the con/dems are telling us how the private sector is going to step in and make the economy purr, providing jobs for all those who lose jobs in the public sector and all those who will be 'forced' off benefits.

while all of this is being said let us reflect on the 400 jobs that are to go at at a vodaphone customer service centre in banbury. not all bad news as 200 of those jobs will be transferred to other locations. time to get on your bikes. vodaphone's human resources director said of the move "Today's changes are about creating a lean and fast moving organisation and at the same time bringing in additional customer facing roles.", no doubt he looks in the mirror every day and tells himself he is a tiger. 

this move to a leaner, faster facing company comes after vodaphone had posted a rise in their profits and at a time when some analysts are saying the job market may be about to enter its own 'double dip' recession. 

guess we are not quite all in it together.
