Jaeluni Asjil posted:If you get sacked then you don't get statutory redundancy pay. If you're offered an alternative role & don't take it without good reason - which sort of sounds like it - then you don't get it either. So it seems you pretty much got the statutory amount but without the hassle. Yeah that was the term I was trying to remember. Been a few years now but constructive dismissal was the reason I went to the solicitor and such. He basically said the same thing. Could have a case, but because I just had the circumstances rather than absolutely everything in writing, it wasn't exactly a clear cut case. So I'd be better taking the settlement he suggested instead of trying to fight it. Camrath posted:Had the owner of my last ‘proper’ job (as opposed to self-employment) pull literally the exact same poo poo on me with my job position- pro tip, if you’re going to advertise someone’s job make sure they’re not the one who fields inquiries from Indeed about it.. (the reasoning I later found out was because it was I’m very obviously not Jewish, and it was a CST-funded security company providing cover to synagogues and some seriously dodge religious schools; I was also a labour member as this was 2016. Obviously this was never admitted to my face but through family connections we’re pretty plugged into that grapevine, and one of my mates was on the governors board for a couple of the institutions we covered). Yeah, it's proper shady poo poo. I just wish I'd had the savvyness to get it all in writing and whatnot to take it to that level. I could smell something fishy was happening but after 7 years and one of the last original members of staff, I figured I was like one of the family. The role I was being moved into was a new one my boss was "creating for me" too, but it was based around a small side project I did more as a hobby compared to my main role at the time and he took job spec sections from actual professional roles relating to the subject matter. It was definitely one i wasn't qualified to do as a permanent full time position, so I could see he was trying to put me in this role and then cut me a few months later when I wasn't "performing to expectations". He (and the power grabber) did the exact same thing to another member of the company who had more sway with the staff than either of them. Sad thing for him was that he actually had an offer for a good job at another company, before they convinced him to stay. My boss and the power-grabber, didn't want him to leave when he was planning to because he was part of the power grabbers team and pretty popular with everybody. So she was giving him special treatment as a means of endearing herself to everyone that had been at the company longer than her. They gave him this role he wasn't qualified for, bumped up his salary and made him what sounded like a super sweet offer. Roll on a few months after the power grabbing was entrenched and she implemented a new team structure putting all of the tenured staff onto one risky client account. The expected happens (because she's crap at her job), the client leaves and she blames the team that she leads and then makes them all redundant. Guy, that was given the new role, no longer has a purpose and is let go almost immediately after for not delivering what the company requires of his position. No redundancy for him from what I heard either.

https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/1657358378388127745 The "more innocent time" idea is consistently one of the stupidest things ever. Especially as it almost always means "more ignorant time". "We called our dogs slurs, but there were no blacks around to tell us not to and the ones that were didn't want to talk to us for some reason." "Also the suicide and child abuse rates were through the roof, but nobody ever spoke about it, which was a lot nicer for me and my dog Dirty Foreign oval office than them being low but having to hear about it all the time."

I had an argument with someone I used to work with a few weeks ago where their entire point came to, almost verbatim, “don’t tell me I can’t say something when I’m reality I can say what I want, because I’m allowed to be an rear end in a top hat if I want to be an rear end in a top hat”

It's more active and makes it clear that you, personally, object to the sentiment. Saying "you can't say that" can be interpreted as "we'd all love to use those good slurs nowadays if it wasn't for the wokerati NPCs policing our very dreams!!!". And if they keep at it just stick the loaf in. Doesn't matter how old they are, a good headbutt to the bridge of the nose always settles matters

I'm okay with a lot of things being done against nazis that I wouldn't otherwise be okay with. Even though it sucks that the slave laborers were caught up in it, that's entirely the fault of the people who decided that it was acceptable to have slaves. I can believe that without hero worshipping the RAF, blanket excusing all of their actions e.g. in colonies, or calling my dog a slur though. It probably harms any supposed anti-nazi morality to claim, as Hastings does, that the RAF fought for the right to turn dogs racist.

The way the movie shows it, its 'gently caress off dog', 'gently caress off dog cant come in here', 'gently caress of dog', until it runs out and gets killed. Not exactly a welcome mascot.

Filling in my part of the Annual Review form before giving to my line manager tomorrow for the AR following week. Section: "Any issues you would like to raise" - well yes, actually, but I'm not willing to put them in writing! Been putting it off for a week and have to finish it tonight. I hate this time of year.

I got asked to do one annual review, and that was about three or four years ago. Much like the "move to embrace data driven" where they surveyed us before they changed the software we used, and then never did the follow up survey. Businesses seem full of people who have very big ideas that will change things, and then they just get forgotten by the wayside and never heard of again. If I get an exit interview I do plan to mention to my manager some of the issues, as I don't think he's particularly fond of them either, but whether or not it does any good I'm not holding out hope for. Maybe it might make things a bit better for the people staying. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 21:34 on May 14, 2023 |

We have quarterly reviews, but our manager has to ok it, and then its reviewed by a team of managers, and in the end they just care about the day to day stats they have recorded already. And the merit increase/profit sharing that you get given from how well you do gets smaller every year. Reviews are just more ammo HR can use against you that they can not record normally. "Oh you said you weren't doing well in team communication here, so you admit your a bad team player.'

This is quite dystopian https://twitter.com/TristanCorkPost/status/1657051766670651392 quote:This effectively forbids the people living in the vans and caravans from talking to people who live in the homes nearby, but also could - in theory - ban them from texting, emailing, writing letters, leaving messages or posters on walls, or even posting on community Facebook pages where their messages could be read by a resident of Greenbank View. This is an entire community who are now ostracised, and legally silenced for the upcoming purge/'gentrification'. The only reason why they are living there in caravans the first place is because of the soaring rents. If any of the dwellers are deemed in breach of the new order, they can have their home and possessions seized and destroyed. They are also there because there's no other place for them to go.  loving grim

I'm sure someone ITT does IT for a charity. If so, could I PM you with a couple of questions regarding requirements for getting the charity discount licence for Microsoft 365 (we have it and as I understand we have to have a Microsoft certified approved professional for support which we have, but he is rather 'unresponsive' and we've had a security issue lately that luckily we noticed before any damage was done - namely my laptop logged me in to the CEO's Office & her email! She'd used my laptop once before I started work there!) I notified her and she changed her password & made the Brownie Guide promise that I hadn't read any of her stuff - which I hadn't). I thought we had to have someone with Microsoft Certification of some sort, but recall reading that the particular Certification doesn't exist anymore o what should I be looking for?
