It's a crap product (software), but slightly better than the others currently out there.
Worth setting up alone to create something better? Then take all their customers...

Rossendalelemming - your boss appears to be a bit of a git and my sympathies on the situation. He's made a threat of redundancy and not followed any procedure at all - do take the good advice of others here and get to an employment lawyer NOW please. CAB are useful to a degree but will delay the response - get to a lawyer!
Your employment lawyer will be happy as they have been very busy over the past 18 months! There appears to be no process, no selection criteria and they haven't even asked you for alternatives. Looks a lot like bullying to me - so take a robust stance with your lawyer and take no shit.
Also, it would be a shame if all documents were lost and consultancy fees are rather high . . . .:-)

And now i've finally had the real "Your Job is under threat", although the Twot still hasn't given me the paperwork as his PA is on holiday. He had to rush it through yesterday so that I finish on 30th September.
But since the original date i started this thread i've been planning for it. My Wife quit her Master's course and has got a job she really likes. So i no longer have to find a job that covers all the bills, I can look for the best option out there.
Of course i'll be cacking it come the 29th September and i've still not found anything

at least you know where you stand now and it sounds like you've prepared well for it. Having a bit mroe freedom on salary shoudl open things up on getting a new job too.
Good luck.

Welcome to the forum. There seems to be a fair few more jobs about lately! Get looking and see what you could be earning in your next job. These guys obviously are not going to look after the asset you are.

With Lemming-like tendencies?
Use the next few weeks wisely. There are oppotunities out there you just need to find them. Get yourself on Linked In and contact old colleagues and customers. Get your CV sorted now and get it out there.
Similar thing happend to me last year. After 14 years I was out the door on a compromise deal. Took me 6 months to get back in work.
Good luck and stay positive.
Oh and get legal advice!

i'm thinking of suggesting Reverse Cowboy as the position i'd like, just to see their faces
You'll need to ask for a mirror as well if you want to see their faces.
