Trallwm farm Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Ta Yes I've got the full time Amicus union officer coming with me so I feel quite lucky to have someone as experienced as him.He says I'm bound to get a warning as my trust are renowned for it as they are such contrary buggers.He said all other trusts he works with there wouldn't even be a case against me.I feel my fate is sealed.But it'll be sealed with me kicking and screaming! Good for you Dont let the bullying toxxxrs have an easy ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendbert Posted March 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 We have indeed had a fab walk Wendy didn't give me much warning for this one so I didn't have as much time to worry Max was a tad excited in the car over, but greeted Wiggle and Pudding without a single grumble, which was fantastic Had a really lovely walk and my two labs are zonked at the moment I have a load of photos to go through which will take some time but will post some later. Thanks again Wendy, Wiggle and Pudding We will definitely have to do that one again. Mr Moo had a bit of a shout at a couple of dogs on the way back but other than that was marvellous. Was lovely to see them all running around and Mr Moo having so much fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs B Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 not at all , if you email it I can add it this afternoon I've PM-ed you Sam. I may have typed a complete load of twaddle though, so please do check it for stupidity. From a very disorganised Mrs B to a very efficient HLGS.

merledogs Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) I have come home to prepare for tomorrow.The good news is that following me putting it formally in writing my useless twonk of a manager is no longer chairing the meeting.I still think I have feck all chance of a fair hearing but this gives me a marginally improved feck all chance.I think I shall be overdosing on rescue remedy tomorrow Good luck Jules Try to keep calm and don't let them see your inner turmoil On the subject of feckwit employers, I have spoken to a friend of mine at work who is a union rep and he thinks I have a very strong argument for sex discrimination. I don't know if/when/what I am going to do about it yet but it's nice knowing that I am not being unreasonable. I am joining the union so he can represent me officially should I ever need it. He is also disgusted that I am being coerced into doing stuff which is supposed to be voluntary Looks like I am outta here Due to the branch not bringing in any revenue for 3 months, it is going to be closing end of April. I am not surprised that it's not bringing in revenue cos that feckwit of a manager of yours seems to do bugger all Onwards and upwards Re BG, write to them and tell them you will pay off the arrears at £50 a month because you cannot afford any more than that (tell them you are losing your job too) Edited March 2, 2009 by merledogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 I just walked away from applying for what would have been a great job for me, superb working conditions, only 2.5 days a week mostly from home and a salary of £24k - thats not pro-rata either thats the pay for 2.5 days a week however it came with a wee snag - the bullying cowbag manager that was the reason for me leaving a previous job... I did debate long and hard whether I could work alongside her again (we'd have had equal status this time) but she's been there 2 years already and I know full well what shes capable of so I decided good salary or not I do not need that degree of stress ever again so passed it by. My phone line has packed up - mid way thru talking to my mother, just did a fault test with BT and they have said the problem is their end so they are diverting all calls to our land line to my mobile free of charge - at the moment the broadband is unaffected but I have a sinking feeling that it might well go titsup as well when they start fiddling.

merledogs Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Be careful Snow cos your mobile phone provider may charge you for the calls diverted to the mobile Has happened to me before, so best to check. My new bedding is arriving tomorrow Is it just me who gets excited about new soft furnishings or is anyone else as sad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 It is pizzling down here and misty. We got the best of the day in the morning, went out in the forest again. We found a signposted circular path, which we followed until it was obliterated by the tracks of giant caterpillars. We could hear them up ahead, chomping up the trees and spitting out logs. They had eaten all the signs for the circular path, so we didn't know where to go and had to retrace our steps. Also, we couldn't walk where the caterpillars had been as they left a squudgy clayey mess which Polly got her ickle paws stuck in. Not a bad walk even so, with some nice almost-vertical slopes for Wispa to run up and down. Both girls are completely knocked out and snoring, and I have chucked a load of assorted veggy fings and grains into the slow cooker hoping for once the result won't taste like medieval peasant nosh. I didn't put any turnips in, which may help to keep supper out of the 14th century. Good luck Jules and Alex. Cheryl, hope you get a new job asap. A washing machine in a KA??
