My manager who went along with the whole thing and some fat cats who are going to do a speech about what a great job we have all done and how valued we all are.

I am furious sat here thinking about it. I can see a flounce coming. How the flip do you bite your tongue when you have been crapped on from a great height.

One of them is too clueless to know any different. The other thinks that they would get a pay rise and I would stay as I am. I actually haven't spoken to either of them to get an answer because I will lose it.

I can't get a straight answer out of my manager keeps saying she is waiting for clarification from HR.

Ignore it and go, get merry and pretend everything is ok.
Ignore it and go, get hammered and tell them what you think of them.
My take when I read your post the other day was that despite the credit crunchy thing, you should maybe have a look at some other jobs and not get bullied into taking a pay cut.

Well, she needs to come clean if she really is a pal.

Maybe Tequila is right, I will go with a half smile and see what they have to say for themselves. Karma must stay in my mind.
