lampshade

Bit of background info for you.......

Mrs lampshade went to Australia for some job interviews, all went well and she now has a choice of two hospitals to work at in Aus subject to refrences.

Now here is the hard bit, Mrs lampshades bosses at work pulled her to one side and said "I recived an email from XYZ today wanting a refrence for you, I'm far too busy to do it this week, not sure when I'll find time to do it"

Basicly they are fuming Mrs lampshade has gone and looked for work outside the NHS.

So how can Mrs lampshade word an email to the prospective employers saying.
"My refrerees have got your emails and they will reply eventually but are fvcked off I'm leaving so are dragging there feet"
It's been 2 weeks since the emails have been sent and Mrs lampshade is getting worried that the job offers might be taken back

Is there any chance she can offer alternate referees?

Nope had to be from these two (line manager and senior midwife)

Is there any HR department that can at least confirm that her working record. Then at least if the referees are dragging their heels, the new employer will at least know that the referees are genuine, just slow.

If you're moving to Australia, it's a bit off to get arsey that she is looking for work outside the NHS - it's a bit of a commute to stay where she is after all.

I think you've worded it quite succinctly in your first post.
