    Making an employee redundant

    G'day, Yeah, Twitch, I'm with you. If you, LM, after 17 years with this person, do not know him/her well enough, to feel you have to pose this question on an investors website, then perhaps YOU should be the one to go. If you don't know one of your employees inside out, after this...

    Just an idea...

    hot water units - how much ?

    OTM, The price I was given didn't give me a break-up of the costs...just the total. I tried to phone the plumbers just now, but closed for the day, unfortunately. I'll be getting the full invoice with break-up of costs on Monday afternoon, so if you like, I'll post the full details then...
