    Kat, from some of these posts you'd think your employer was Ronnie Biggs or Al Quaeda, not someone paying your friend £160 on a one-off basis and wanting to avoid setting this person up as an employee with all the hassle that can involve. In the overall scheme of things I would describe this as naughty but understandable especially if this is a small business which does not have an army of payroll, HR and tax people to deal with the latest truckload of red tape delivered by the state.

    Chris - the person involved IS already an employee!
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    You're being rude for even insinuating anything tbh. I needed the time off. You've not managed to pay enough attention through this post have you, where I explained how adamant it was that I get the time off to write my dissertation. And. I've not sworn...have I? I find you rude trying to accuse me of something? Which...I have asked what you're attempting to insinuate, yet you can't answer?

    You do not seem to want to hear that what your manager suggested was dubious, so I have deleted all my previous posts from your thread.
