Bugger

Right, in the event that he doesnt cough up redundancy money, does anyone know what my options are ?
Ive worked out what Im owed, plus also after reading, hes only given me a weeks notice, whereas under employment law Im entitled to a week for every year Ive worked here.... so I think Im entitled for that money as well, and any unused holiday pay ?
I'll bring the subject up with him, but am not willing to lay down on this...

Im certain he'll try and wriggle out of paying me redundancy... so just want to know what I can threaten him with without bringing the tax man into it really.... can I take him to the small claims court over redundancy money ? things do get complicated as my pay wasnt all done through the books as it were..... but Im going to fight for that lot as well...

Check the DTI site for all you need to know...

you know.. it goes from worse to worse.....

im being made redundant for downsizing due to the company struggling....

just had a call off my boss to do a few things in the office (like hell am I doing them) and his wife wants to speak to him after Ive finished...

she promptly takes the phone off me and goes on about how shees been to swansea and seen the brand new caravan she would like to buy.....

guess where the money is coming from... Im being made redundant, and she harps on about this caravan while standing next to me....... and I know full well where the money for this caravan is coming from and it aint from their hard earned savings.......

Life just aint fair mate. It's very annoying but there is nothing we can do. Get what you can out of them and move on as quick as you can.

Good luck!

only just read this VB, sorry to hear that, sucks bighairy's that

as one post said, dont sell ya mule until you really really REALLY have to. fingers crossed summat comes up in the not too distant

Well, I left him a note on his desk last night before leaving about what I am entitled too.....

had a few missed phone calls on my mobile after that.. lol

glad I didnt answer those ones
He was perfectly fine about the points I brought up on the note in the morning, just not when he first read it!...
He hasnt read employment law in some time and didnt think I was entitled to a pay out.. so Im glad I pointed that out to him, as otherwise I was only going to get the week owed to me...

so I will get a payout, not as much as I was hoping for, and just about what Im legaly entitled to.......... which is fine by me... better than the bugger all I thought I was going to get originaly!

Jesus, sorry to hear that mate

Just a thought. You say you've been building off and on since school. Why not work for yourself? A few jobs done well will soon spread the word and you'll be laughing. My brother in law did it last year and now cant cope with demand. He didn't have any qualifications only common sense, was a slaughterman previously.
BONUS side.....your boss will be lovely

Sadly, I know the hassles of working for ones self.. as I basicaly did all the paper work for my now previous employer...
It was a thought that I had, but I have decided to try and get back to Electronics or Electrical work, or possibly IT in some shape or form....
Am now considering other options... including, and not limited to admin and clerical stuffs... a jobs a job as they say...

sadly, I have too many ideas of what I could do.... I need to narrow them down a lot!
