I spent the afternoon shopping around for a particular training course I want to do. I had previously researched this same course about nine months ago.
I found a lot of training companies have disappeared or been taken over. Also, the courses have got cheaper.
When I phoned to make a booking, I was immediately offered a discount!
So, if benched or threatened with the bench, it might be a good idea to spend some of your war chest now to improve your employability or increase your options.
(I eventually bought my way out of the 2001 downturn by spending the last of my tax account money on a PRINCE2 course - so it worked for me then. But it was a hell of a gamble. Your choice, your risk.)
