I saw Tim on Sunday and he's still awaiting the outcome as it's now gone to or going to a tribunal.......he remains positive though!

On a more sombre note, he's sold his 555 STi and is driving a vectra...!

I'm sure he'll be posting again soon.

Skoosh.

 

<alan partridge mode> Ahhhh Haaaaa!

Just having a nosey on SN and noticed my thread!..

**Update**
Good News:
Well the old company have responded to my solicitor who has sent their comments to me for my input, just need to do spend a bit of time on it over the weekend to finalise things before the big day which can't be very far off!.

I have indeed been very busy work wise over the last month, along with other 'problems'

Cant be long now... $$ Ker-ching

Thanks for all the support, once it's all sorted I will post all the original documents & the full uncut story

And yes the vectra rumour is true!...

What a cracking sunday morning read, don't think I've been so gripped to anything in a long time

Hope it all turns out in your favour, let us know what happens

Don't look in this section much, but bloody hell, what a read. Dying for a pee and starving having sat here for an hour and a half reading this!

Have to say those undeserving sons of bitches have it coming and I hope you well and truly stick it up where the sun don't shine.

Just don't keep us waiting for ever for the update...!

 

Any more news?

 

**Update**

Hearing is scheduled for Monday 15th November!

 

Good luck mate Hope you get the best deal out of it for yourself

 

What he ^^^^^ said


Good luck

 

ditto

you going to get another scoob?

now answer your texts.

I had similar situation to this, but the company settled out of court - wouldnt be surprised if this happens here. At this stage, the original incident doesnt really matter, as the procedural snafu is wrongful dismissal by the looks of it. Good luck

 

BTTT

 

less than a week to go!..... *phew*
looking forward to this and getting it out of the way

 

FANTASTIC read Tim !!!

Made a long morning short

Will the unabridged version be available in paperback?

Good luck.

 

what a read!

good luck tim!

didn't you have a union at that place?

 

Evening,

Nope no union... the last guy who tried to become a rep was soon pushed out... ummn

Had some contact today from the solictor, looks like we will be settling out of court for a number of reasons.. Ummmn
when it's all sorted can't wait to publish ALL the details.. well worth a read

Thanks for the support

 

Popcorn at the ready

 

Good luck, cant wait to find out

 

Just (over 2hrs ago) found this thread. I have been on the edge of my seat reading it.
Well done for having the courage of your convictions and the guts, stamina and determination to see it through. I know it will have been difficult in these dark and lonely days when your pride was hurt, your confidence shattered, even if for just a short time and being sacked under any circumstances for any diligent employee, as you clearly were, is a major trauma.
Your lucid account and ability to concentrate logically on the central issues do you a great credit.
Good luck.

 

Sounds typical to me. Their lawyers have only just studied all the material and don't reckon much of their chances. If you do settle, you might find their conditions are that they do not admit any wrong doing and they may want to gag you from talking about it, like posting what happened on Scoobynet. Of course you have to protect your own interests, but it would be a shame not to hear all the gory details after all the build up!

I hope your solicitor is a b@stard (in the nicest possible sense of course) and negotiates a good settlement for you.

 

If you were banned from telling anyone about it, it would be a real shame if a new user posted on this thread with a fictional story of what can happen in a work place when they want you out.

 

Missed this thread the first time around, but just read it all! very interesting, and good luck for the 15th!

 

hoping all goes well here too!!

 

What a rivetting read, Best read since the thread (Cannot remember the guys name sorry) who had a volvo parking in his space at work and ended up squatting in a corner of the offenders office to prove a point....

Good Luck to you on the 15th.

You could copy and paste this thread into a book and I bet it would sell.

 

Roll on Monday. Good luck mate..

 

Ditto above, no matter the outcome this can't have been much fun...all the best for Monday, I hope both you and your former employer get when you deserve

 

Thanks for everyones kind comments, I really do appriciate it!, almost brought a tear to my eye!

Thanks again

Tim

 

Been following this one since it was born and just another big good luck, hope you come out a winner mate

Matt

 

Wow - what a read, and what a nightmare.... Go contracting if you have the skills, I did after being treated like **** for a company I slogged my guts out for, so decided to give them the middle finger and went contracting, that was 7 years ago and I've not looked back.

I now show no long term loyalty to a company, I do my job, get me money and say thanks you very much, I don't have to care for them as they don't care for me... Happy relationship....

Hope you bust their *** in court...
