You are a sole office administrator in a small company. Your employers wife informs you that she is going to "outsource" the accounts and therefore your services will no longer be required. Formal notice has not yet been given but will be. Your job involves much more then just the accounts and you are alone in the shop 60% of the time, sometimes all day. You suspect that the "outsource" is going to be the employers daughter or daughter-in-law. What would be your next step?

I was made 3 times in my working life. I always found that the best attitude was to treat looking for employment as a job and then spend the same amount of time daily on that task that would have spent at work. This always worked for me as I never spent more than 6/8 weeks without work.
