But when you look back what do you see now... Don't right this experience as a wast of your time, what done is done... Use it to you advantage, even if it is for attitude adjustment for you next move in life.. There is all way's something positive you can take with you. You just have to find what it is and use it...

Best of luck Chris

Hi Chris, only met you for the first time recently (Canberra dinner). Sorry to hear of your job loss. My advice is to just put it behind you and to move on. Dwelling on it and thinking what a bunch of c***s they are is not going to help,it will just eat you up inside.

I have recently been in a similar situation and made "redundant" after 15 years with the one employer, I am sure it was because I clashed with my supervisor. I lined myself up a job straight away, finishing Friday and started the new one Monday. As others have said, when one door closes, another opens. Things happen for a reason. Life is too short. Can't think of any more cliches at the moment!

You seem very knowledgeable with your knowledge of XR6T/F6 tuning and modifications (not sure of your qualifications), maybe there is a future for you at one of the tuning shops such as Nizpro or HPF.

Good luck with whatever the future holds.

l feel used as l think they just employed me for my contacts within the industry.
Sorry to hear that , still I presume you have a list of valued clients so I can suggest when you have established your self elsewhere it's quite ethical to contact them as a reintroduction , good luck with things.
