Just wondering how the NRA is doing on the diversity front.

I am trying to remember if there are any females in any position of management?

I think they are also under-represented in the area of late-40s Mackem slap-heads

....where do I apply?

They definitely need more journalists. Especially the variety who come equipped with a pair of rusty Enfields!

I am being told that the NRA have terminated the contracts of Heather and Amanda. For the record I/we have always had superb service from both of them. We mostly dealt with Heather and she was always very good at getting back to us with the information or advice we needed, Amanda dealt with our entries into Trade shows and again things always went smoothly, I feel very disappointed for both Heather and Amanda if indeed this is the case. Can anyone confirm or deny this information?

If indeed it is true it will be interesting to see how the NRA supports us in 2014 both as individual and trade members.

I bumped into Heather at a local tyre fitter in December, and was a little embarrassed when I asked if things were settling-down at work to be told that she'd received the news of her termination the day before.

Bugger, and she had only just got back after her knee operation. Certainly not what is needed in the run up to Christmas.

The last time I saw Heather in the flesh she was on crutches after a knee operation. Hugely insensitive to sack someone recovering from a medical procedure.
