Can't wait to tell work !!!!!
I am really really excited at the moment but have to contain myself so I just thought I would post this on here, has anyone else felt the urge, when your boss gives you loads of hassle about things, do you just feel like saying to him "I don't care I'm going anyway, nah nah ne ne nah"
But you know you can't even though you are nearly there, until you get that beloved visa, it is pretty bad for me at the moment, I just cant motivate myself and I know I have to give 2 months notice
There must be some people going thru' this or they have been thru' it?

They just know it's on the cards and have discussed notice period and how they'll deal with it when the time comes.
I was thinking of this, but dont know what would happen if I didn't get our Visa for some unknown reason

Hubbie came back from work last night well p'd off. He told a kid in his class (age 14) three times to put his football magazine away. He refused so when hubby went to take the magazine the kid grabbed his arm and shoved it away. After hubby read him the riot act the kid just said "F*** you"
Think the only thing keeping him going right now is knowing he has already handed in his notice.

Because of the situation I work in we felt it was only fair to allow my boss as much time as possible to find a replacement for me. I teach in an independent school so the pay is quite low and the work quite intense as we do not get supply or support from the boss. Therefore it is usually hard to find people willing to work in those conditions. (Although I love my job.)

Hi Dicko,
I think I know how you feel, I'm in the final wait for my visa and desperately want to hand my notice in. I have told my boss and colleagues so they know it's going to happen, it's just a case of when ! I find it really hard to concentrate and 'get the job done', especially the more pressure there is the more I want to say bo****ks I'm leaving soon. Selling the house, packing and everything else to think about - it's no wonder I can't concentrate ! I think it's going to get worse though when the notice is finally handed in. Although then I'll have to hand over to my replacement (if they find one quick enough) and that's another hassle ! Still when I get to Oz, I won't have to work - hubby is going to bring in the cash ! I'm just doing the childcare bit, and I'm looking forward to it.

Hang on till when you need to hand it in mate. Make sure the visa's all sorted till you do it.
Handed mine in Monday which felt excellent. My boss is a good bloke so he cool about it. His boss hasn't mentioned it but seem's pretty pissed off.
My former boss who is still in my team has been the bitch from hell since she found out. She was the one who hired me and I suspect she's feeling duped as I've only been there since Feb.

Hiya,
My head at school knew last year that I was planning on going as I had to ask him for a reference for my NOOSR. I told the rest of the staff in May as I felt that I was sneaking around and lying when I said that I didn't want to go on courses. There is an issue concerning my notice which is really getting on my nerves. The head said that I had to work a term (around 10 - 15 weeks depending on which term visa arrives) but when they were making staff redundant last year the notice period was only a month. Not a very happy bunny at the moment and can't wait to go.
