Really sorry to hear this Kenny.

hope you find something soon. Move to Aberdeen, it's the best thing Alan and I have ever done!

Also sorry to hear this Kenny but it sounds like you're well organised for a comeback.
Although all the "come to Aberdeen" stuff sounds a bit like a cult

Crap news mate. Happened to me a couple of years back and turned out fine though.

I'm off next week, so if you fancy coming up to Abz there's a spare room here. You're welcome to stay a few days while you get your face around the agencies ASAP. Email and online applications does not work up here, I discovered.

Aberdeen is awesome.

Best of luck mate, just came through the other side of this myself. Hope it all works out for the best

+1 for the ultimate outcome of redundancy being a positive one. Sounds like you've got the skills that are in demand. Good luck with the job hunt.

Sorry for you Kenny. What sh*t news.

Good luck with the next chapter, and here's to a successful outcome.

Best wishes.

Sorry to hear, lot's of engineering jobs going at the moment in Aberdeen though. Pretty sure Weatherford just advertised two new Engineer positions but not sure what to do with. If I find out more I'll forward on to you, pm me your email address and I can send it direct through referral of friend.

Kenny, sorry to hear that. I can't begin to think what that must feel like, although it has been a worry for the past few years. Sounds like you have been prudent in recent years and sounds like you have a wealth of experience and are well respected. Hope you find something soon but enjoy a wee break in the meantime.

Thanks everyone, couple of people have asked for a CV to pass on so if anyone else in Aberdeen area with contacts in oil industry can pass on my CV please let me know.

All the best Kenny, the construction industry is not what it was, hope something positive can come out of it.

Tough break Kenny but sounds like you are pretty employable. Apart from the Jeremy Kyle habit.

Tut could probably use a lodger to fund his halogen heater and viagra habit, and whilst holed up there you are in a good place to check out Aberdeen, the centre of the Scottish economy these days.

Depending on what ties you have, a stint in Aberdeen will do no harm. Whilst I wouldn't quite call it awesome (it's a long way from fecking anywhere other than Stavanger, IMHO), I did OK out of the first 5 years of my career up there and you at least have a ready made NE SE family to welcome you

Actually I kinda miss the place.

All the very best.

Just spotted this thread , gutted for you. Wishing you all the best for the future.

Gutted for you mate, but I don't think you'll be out of work for long. If you're interested in Aberdeen, the half the battle is already done. Will be a shame to lose you from the Weej, but will be nice for you to be making some proper money
