Dear Blog,
I have to tell everyone about the amazing friends I have at RR Donnelley. I will not share the gift with you all, however it was extremely generous and will provide a buffer for a rainy day that may or may not come in the future.
I hear so many times of people with cancer, having family, friends and work collegues back away when they need them most. They have their reasons, albeit sometimes amazingly selfish ones why they back away and cant handle cancer...however I can't think of anyone that has done so in my case...I am so lucky!
RRD as a company have been amazing and I have no doubt that my resolve would not be as strong without their support...
I had a review with Richard (boss man) and Alastair (hr man) and however many times I meet with them I always go in dreading it as it may be that milestone that you don't want to reach when the decision has been made to let you go...I was told that the recommendation is to keep me working as best as I can for a further 3 months at which time we will review again. It is a climate of reassurance and what they can do for me...they are a huge multi-national company and so often the bigger companies can get lost as far as employees go, it is refreshing for RRD to actually practice what they preach.
Yay Team!
