    You are correct, you are confused, post 43 may help you understand.

    I'd sack you and enjoy doing it.

    See I can't stand whingers and cringers - I run my own business, I suspect you couldn't run a duck farm.

    id enjoy taking you to a tribunal for wrongfull dismissal, it would probably finish your business off, and i would be smiling all the way to the bank.:T

    forgive me for being thick but what are cringers? people who cringe?

    Personally speaking i would just take the time off sick.
    If he has a good record at work there isn't a lot they could do they would have a procedure for dealing with ecessive sickness and they would have to follow that. i.e verbal warnings followed by written warnings.
    They would have to prove he wasn't sick and then they would only be able to instigate their warnings procedure if he had already taken lots of time off sick.
    If they tried firing him he would have their guts for garters in a tribunal.

    Another Arthur Scargill Wannabe.

    I expect they have a procedure for dealing with lazy oiks, it's called a recession and redundancy. Too bad, so sad, bye-bye.

    Perhaps the children going to school is not that important for one day?
    You started off so nice Captain. I can't believe you're the heartless soldier in later posts. Take a chill pill and sit in the sun.

    No I simply realised that 42 was not enough for you to "Get it" so I expanded on it in 43. There seems little point in 2 of us having a private dialogue here. Shall we stop? You can have the last word if it helps.
    This is an open forum, anyone can post and I just did !

    Speaking as somebody with a strong work ethic, it is very demoralising in the workplace when you see "rights" being abused ... because it means some other bugg4h is roped in to do the work, often in addition to their own as there was no warning.

    When you're the only sad sap sat there diligently working away come rain, shine or death, to have others around you twisting the rules and assuming their own sub-set, it's quite disheartening.

    Some people seem to think they are ireplacable at work, if people do throw sickies its not much of a big issue, if you think its your responsibility to cover for someone who is off more fool you.

    You are only paid to carry out the job you do, not to do 2 peoples work, thats how people loose their jobs, because of old goody 2 shoes doing 2 jobs instead of 1.

    If you can do your job and someone elses job you must have a really easy job, theres no way i could do 2 jobs where i work.

    At the end of the day, people who work for large firms are treated differently to small and medium size firms, also it depends on what your occupation is.


    Basically you are just a number and when your gone there is always someone there to replace you.

    We all go to work for one reason only and thats the money, if you do 2 jobs do you get paid twice the money?
