Default I've just got my final decision through from work...

...and I'm still sacked

But seriously, it is a little disconcerting being officially unemployed, but the legal stuff starts here I guess.

I may, may, have a job lined up. My cousin and brother work for North Lincolnshire homes in various roles, and apparently a job has come to light which I should be able to do. It's official title is as a 'finisher'. It's basically I go round with cleaning products and sealents for when the joiners have fitted kitchens/bathrooms etc in council property. No repetitive heavy lifting, and I can use a glue gun with my left hand I suppose. Also with my cousin being manager status it gives me a slight advantage as he knows I'm a good worker.

I'll see how that one works out, he's having a word with relative 'gaffer' now. Even if I only last a couple of weeks (if indeed it is to physical for my wrist), I'm at least trying and hopefully the job centre may help me out.

So there you have it, I'm a bum. Form an orderly que to **** on me please

I'd rather my tax pay your benefits than some idle scum bag who's never done a days work in their life mate.

Good luck with the job hunt

I wasn't on 'iraqgoals1' or 'rizl4' as they wouldn't broadcast for me. I went onto this instead and watched a nice, non-buffering high res version of the match on full screen...15"

And it was in chinese too

Told you they would,nt find in your favour.

lets just hope your "rep" wasnt stringing you along, and your case is rock

solid.

if your going down the litigation route, just be careful that your new work

cannot be construed the same as your old work

Draw a line under the last lot, now's the time to climb the ladder and give

them the V's


good luck

Out of interest what happened to your wrist, as I had a wrist injury and it cost me a year off work.
