  • Hi all just £5.76 today of the old Barclaycard.

    Which adds up to over £100 of the Barclaycard since starting on Tuesday, I hope I can keep this up, I do get anxious and wanting to PAD constantly that can only be a good thing.

    Morning all!

    Felling much better this morning :D - thanks for the good wishes SueP19 & hope you are on the mend too!! Sounds grim for you poor thing. Hope for a better day today, I think we both better write off Friday & start afresh.:confused:

    I have to be well for tomorrow, big outing then so today I have to decide what to wear so I am prepared & not trying to find something at the last minute. Will be descending on Warrington so what's the weather forecast Danko?

    No Pad as yet, got up early & have been making bread & lemon curd (glut of eggs from chooks). Back later with PAD & hopefully get some things done from yesterday too.

    BTW have to chip in about CC board - I've not had much help when I've posted on there at all, I did wonder why but perhaps now I know :rotfl:
    OoO sashanut! The weather's beautiful! Not a cloud in the sky from where I'm sitting at the moment! :D And it's set to stay up until late afternoon tomorrow - good job as it's the VW Show at Tatton Park tomorrow and we want lots of sunshine! What brings you to Danko Heights??

    Mmmmmm lemon curd on toast... omnomnom...

    May be worth asking for a copy of the Company's policies and procedures as they should state in full things like paternity rights and the grievance procedure. You OH would have had to fill in a paternity form like this: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/forms/sc3.pdf and that would have been processed through the payroll and submitted to the Inland Revenue. HR would "normally" write back to the employee confirming the arrangements i.e. the paternity dates, any holidays, payments etc.

    Like you, I'm confused why the days have been paid like they have. They're to be paid as weekly blocks - either one week and another week taken at a later date or two full weeks at once. Deffo worth giving the ACAS people a call though - they're open 'til 1pm on a Saturday too :D And it's free. Very correct advice :D Even I use them!
    If you can get a copy of the grievance procedure, it should indicate a timescale for someone to respond - it's normally around 5 working days - sometimes more dependent on the Company. They have to do something about it so may be worth pursuing :D Unfair treatment etc...
    Tell me about budgets though - I've been told I'm not getting a bonus when I leave because a) I'm leaving and have been for 12 months (though I've been working 45+ hour weeks, redundancies, implementing the HR department), b) the Company have been more than flexible with my school arrangements (though I've been taking holiday and flexi days to accommodate) and c) no money available (to which other people are receiving increases). Raah. Most angry.
    Hope it all comes good though angelic :D Gather some facts too from ACAS as that would strengthen any case for a grievance. God, these are the things I try and get people to avoid at work!! :rotfl: Maybe people want to talk to me and we resolve these things :rotfl:

    I'm confused as how they managed to get out of paying him 3weeks worth of pay?!!

    Sounds like you're not having the best of times either! x

    Morning Padders! (or is it afternoon?!?)

    DH left me in bed and I've just got up!:j
    Actually, I'm a natural early riser, so I feel jetlagged if I have too much sleep!
    Just had a stressful few work weeks - so needed it.

    Ooooh Sue you poor thing:o, I have a similar story but it's not for public consumption - hope you're feeling better soon x (Another DH for you) :grouphug:

    Sashanut - Lemon Curd? You must be a right whizz in the kitchen! I could eat that right now MmmmmMMMM! Have a good day at the rubgy :)

    If I do my heavy eyeliner I'll look even more the part! :rotfl:
    Hahaha Danko! - You "paint" a great picture!

    Happy Birthday Jo and Many Happy Returns of the PAD day!!:rotfl:

    Right PAD of £10 for me - I'm off to get the washing out and take advantage of a rare sunny day.
    Catch y'all later x
