The rumour is now confidential

A week of announcements at GBU. Thursday's rumoured announcement ended with a paragraph explaining it was confidential. A bit late - rumour has it that one of the associates was told by his friend (not a GBU employee) that he'd been called in as a consultant while they were making this decision. Edinburgh's like that.

There was also an announcement that the firm is going to move building at some time in the next two years.

Today I arrived at work late to the sound of grumbling. Today's announcements was about holidays. It seems we must all take a full week off between Christmas and New Year. Sounds good, but we lose part of our holiday entitlement. Same total number of days off work in the year, but fewer of them can be taken when we choose. That shouldn't really have any impact on me. I mean, every year I find myself trying to use up my holiday entitlement before I lose them at the turn of the year.

Latest rumour is that someone who left might be coming back. Just goes to show you shouldn't put much faith in rumours.
