I don't know where to start...

Too cut a long story short... A colleague and I discovered some "unusual" financial transactions from my boss and his girlfriend at work so reported it to senior management.

This resulted in a huge and rather stressfull investigation, following
which they were both fired and criminally charged.

It has now become apparent that there may be more people involved as they made myself and my team redundant and replaced us all within a day.

Consequently I had to give back the work laptop that I used to use but finally bought my own PC and was connected yesterday (the first thing I did was to visit Siliconhell).

So HOORAY I'm back in operation and am having an extended break from working.


I worked at a place where some unusual transactions took place. When discovered it was not a nice enviroment to work in. Everybody was very nervous even though it was only two people that had been up to no good. The police got involved and many people where grilled. In the end one person did a runner and the police issued a warrant for his arrest. The company kept it very quiete and stopped people from discussing it. Rumours are that hundreds of thousands of pounds was misappropriated over a 10 year period

Its very very sad and disapointing that you have been made redundant as it cant have been easy for you to raise the issue in the first place

Anyway, welcome back
