I'll do that thanks, and pass it over tomorrow night.

Meanwhile he sees this now as a great opprotunity to finally escape from the viperous bloody sucking motor trade. He's NOT going back into car sales and will sweep the streets if needs be apprently...IF there are any road sweeping jobs left to be had of course? ::)

Clearly the "Boss" is using this as a way of clearing out some staff.

Taking a case to Tribunal costs nowt but legal representation will. CAB can and do supply a "Friend" free of charge.  He is unlikely to find a "No win no fee" lawyer for such a case .... no big bucks in it for them. If your mate wins then his legal costs will be payable by the employer.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

He'd apparently been to see a solicitor on Friday and advised that this sort of trivial reason dismisal has increased by about 400% in the last 18 months.  eeek:

First question he asked was, is the company having financial problems?

Anyway, he's not pusuing the matter through tribunal as the solicitor reckons he's only got a 50/50 chance of winning anyway.

So another one hits the dole que.

I went in there today to do a job for them, and marched straight into his office and said to him, "give my bessy mate a job or I'll smash yer face in"  eveilgrin:

It may have werked, as he's got an interview at 1:30 today!  angel1

Just go for the direct route and tell sheeples what you need and demand. Simples. eveilgrin:

Well it didn't do any harm, as he asked me to ring him to email his CV through, and i received a call just 1 hour later telling me he'd got an interview this avvy..
No worries, I WON'T be asking you regarding any vacancies, as I really couldn't bare to be told to fuck off. sad32:
