I'd have to say that prospects are looking up.

The redundancy settlement is due to be much more generous than we'd all feared, so that's one definite plus.  All that remains now to be settled, is the timing.  I've opted not to apply for any of the jobs in Zurich, so the future of the Build Lab (my little empirette within the company) is a bit uncertain as yet.  It currently lives on twenty or so rather aged machines in a 19" rack.  Can't see them wanting to move all that to Zurich, somehow.  Maybe the Lab will simply be discontinued - there's a vaguely similar facility already in Zurich that might be expanded to perform some of the tasks... or maybe it'll just stop.

A quick departure with Pay-In-Lieu, or a multi-month migration?  I wonder which it'll be.

Meeting this morning.  There probably won't be any firm details, but we shall see...
