    Do you not think it's odd that they sacked me for gross misconduct (albeit overturned) and offered me money??


    No. Many times a compromise agreement is just a way of avoiding an ET which costs money to defend whether they are in the right or not. £5k is much less than the staff time faffing about with it, and a solcitior, cost.

    Happens all the time.

    New house. Bigger mortgage. MFWB after I have my buffer cash in place.
