Yes I would rather scrub toilets thank you. Just because your personal choice wouldn't be that, dont assume mine would be. There is nothing more to this than stated.
No one wants the s**t job of washing up all day.

Except, in general, someone with a family to support and a mortgage to pay.;)

Thank you all for your input. Even if most of it is judgmental. Jeez you all must be so perfect and never acted on impulse before.

I agree.

Why would someone, with three young children to support, about to buy his/her first home and debts, do something so irresponsible and for such a minor reason?

Are you assuming Im a single parent like someone has also commented?
I have a partner that works full time and is on a good wage so I don't class this as irresponsible. As I stated before, this job doesnt pay bills, its purely for more luxuries.
As for debts, seeing as you are reading my old posts, you may see this was in fact a minor debt and no longer exists. Thanks for your concern.

A "minor" debt that you couldn't afford to pay.

Maybe best to focus more of your income on savings than luxuries. And stop digging yourself into holes

Terrible advice considering the supervisor has asked for the resignation on writing...saying you're sick won't cut it

check your contract carefully to see what is says about resignations, if it needs to be in writing technically at this point you are still employed, you haven't resigned and they haven't dismissed you.

As you have now decided you are not going to resign your task is to try to stop them dismissing you (which with under two years service I am afraid they can do for any reason)

Personally I would go in tomorrow at your normal start work time or earlier if possible and speak to the supervisor, explain your reasons for your out of charter actions today, why you would like to continue to work for them and how you are prepared to do the extra training and grateful for the opportunity to be given this. Keep this conversation about yourself do not mention anything about how your colleagues have been treated, this is irrelevant to your situation. The decision what to do will be out of the supervisor hands but at least this shows you have tried to resolve this earlier than wait until Monday.

We all do things we regret- I know I have!
So going in first thing on Monday and asking to speak with your supervisor is a good idea..If you've worked well there with no complaints for almost 2 years then hopefully they will give you a chance and accept an apology and an explanation.Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think you sound arrogant, just defensive because you feel you are being attacked on here and I also think there has to be other stuff piling on top of you to cause such an extreme reaction at your work. It will be apparent if your apology is genuine.
If they don't allow you to continue working there,then deal with the situation from there.If you're at rock bottom you can only go up.

So maybe not such a bad idea after all then.... if (for example) you walked out because you were feeling unwell, and now go back, explain this and apologise, perhaps you might still have a job. It seems to me you have nothing to lose and quite a bit to gain.....

Did you go into work today?

No, I was assuming that you needed the money because of your financial situation - precious few people in their mid twenties scrub toilets for years just to pay for luxuries, particularly when they have debts and are saving for a mortgage deposit.

As you have so much free time, why don't you re read my post regarding the debt and you'll see the age of the debt. Many years ago, clearly different circumstances.

Why do you keep telling the OP to lie to their employer? Why would anyone want to employ a blatant liar?

You said you can't afford to pay it now. It would be far better for your family to commit to saving than buying luxury items.

Have you exchanged on the house yet? If not you do need to let the lender know of your change in circumstances.

Your making assumptions based on other people my age. I dont NEED to scrub toilets. I am actually a qualified accountant but I choose to do this job as I prefer to be on my feet rather than sat at a desk all day.
Just because you see cleaning as a job that many dont enjoy/below you, dont assume that applies to me. I get good job satisfaction from cleaning. More so than ever p*ssing around with someones accounts.
