Serving notice

I also overheard that a recruitment agency rang earlier this week to tout for business and was told the company was fully staffed by my director.

I have already signed the new contract with my future employer. It is with the MOD and is not easily changeable. It is a life changing job that I cannot afford to miss.

I had worked out that I had 4 days due holiday which effectively takes me from 2 to 3 weeks notice.

I am being bullied something rotten now for not staying.

Document the bullying when you have a few good recorded incidents walk out and tell them you are suing for Constructive Dismissal, which I believe you CAN get even if you have handed in your notice.

Also did you have the agreement to go in writing? If so just leave - if not, try and get it in writing that she had agreed but is now changing her mind - email her in a way that means she has to reply in detail - so no closed questions.
