    Just got made redundant

    Looks like I’ll be spending more time with my garden this summer.

    Just in time for the World Cup mate. Enjoy.

    I just left my job too (voluntarily) and it’s been a life upgrade.

    My dad worked himself to death aged 52. I always told myself I wouldn’t make the same mistake, so having just turned 52 I’m going to enjoy any downtime that comes.

    I have an allotment I’ve done fuck all on, so with some gardening leave likely I can sort that out.

    Do all Englishmen have gardens? In America, that makes you gay.

    In the U.K. A severance package starts with "garden leave".

    My understanding is you are legally obligated to show up at your place of work but because they won't let you do anything you spend most of the day sitting out in the garden, ergo garden leave.

    Not quite. It’s the ideal spot of getting paid but not going in to work. Officially you have to be available to work (but it’s rare to be asked to), and you’re not allowed to get another job (because you’re still getting paid). Other than that, you’re in clover.

    sorry to hear your father died so young, "working himself to death" what did he do? Dangerous or stressful work.

    He was a self employed, had a shop. Was told to take it easy, didn’t, died.

    Are you a proper Englishman?

    If you’re white and change your name to Dennis you’d be a mortal lock in the States
