being made redundant really hurts, even when you didn't like the job you had. it leaves you with feelings of anger towards your employer, expecially when, as in my case, they try to give you the statutory amount for redundancy pay. this is approx. one weeks pay for every year you have been there.
then you go around, emailing redundancy advice laywers etc, and you discover that they are perfectly within their rights, and there's nothing you can do.
however, it is always worth checking that they haven't stepped out of line - if they have, nail them to the wall.
