I was made redundant last week, which I'm still coming to terms with. But after wallowing for a week or so, today I went to the zoo and saw the baby elephants. And now I've opened champagne. It's my birthday today, my (quite large) payout's just come through, and I have an interview on Friday. I'm going to be fine.

Congarats! And nothing wrong with a good wallow.

A redundancy is a chance for a fresh start. Enjoy the down time. Best of luck for your interview!
