ok there were 2 disciplinary issues, one pending before i left.

me and the rest of my small team got transferred to the IT department from the HR department where I worked.

the first disciplinary was at a works social event where i ended up throwing a drink twice over a work colleague who worked in HR. for that i received a written warning.

a re-organisation then occured where my post was deleted - i felt i was being picked on because of my disciplinary and i then got nailed before i left for contacting one of the people involved at the works event that i was not supposed to - emailing her and bad mouthing several people in HR - where i used to work before the transfer.

that was the pending disciplinary.

i got out via a CA which the employer agreed to.

the it department and the hr department both come under the resources department which also includes the legal department - the director of resources overall who is my ultimate manager is a lawyer who works in legal. that is why she can and did instruct her lawyers to immedietly write a CA and will do so again if it needs amendment.

I truly believe that if you had told the future employer the reasons as stated above, they would not have withdrawn the offer and would just have had a bit of a laugh about it. It is deception that really pi55es people off.

Really? And you think the public sector is soft? It's the age old story - OP goes to works do, OP can't hold their drink, OP acts like an inept idiot - OP usually gets sacked. OP was bloody lucky. Bearing in mind that that is the part OP admitted to after several pages of asking! And telling potential employer that nothing was pending! So entire veracity is questionable.

Guess from the times I was involved in recruiting, it was mainly for sales people and an incident like that would not have stopped us taking someone on.

My guess is that the OP worked for a Local Authority.

Btw, I'm now 99.999999% recurring certain that the snitch was the person you threw the drink over!

Have just read through all this and there is one thing I don't understand (although I may have missed something so apologies if I've got this wrong). Why is the CA actually an issue? The former employer provided the agreed reference, and it was an ex employee (presumably not restricted by the terms of the CA) who gave the additional, damning information. How is that under the former employers control? I'm confused!

Instead of arguing the toss with some people on here, some of whom are not being helpful or supportive, just get yourself proper legal advice.
