I hope you would have taken him to employment court for that if he had fired you.

happened in dec last year then i quit in early feb after holidays. had been there for bout 5 years too. basically opted for redundecy, got 2 weeks pay + holiday pay and left on the spot.

a girl who worked with me got the same final warning too for the same offense...she came back from her holidays, left a spiteful note telling them how shit it was working for them, dropped off the company car and left.

as for court...it was tempting to run msn again and get fired so i could own them in court but it was too much stress/hassle. just not worth it.

the company (sherborne packaging) was pretty decent until it got taken over and progressively started going down hill, trying to become a corporate with 5 managers and 2 workers.


annyway im soo glad where i am now :D!
