Secret work enemies

You got the name of the manager? To really up the ante they need shaming. But this is a narrow edge, chances are the manager reckons she's been bleating to the troops about the decision and prepares her for some more of the same.

Vindictive management only understand one thing, formal complaint in writing, which is then attached to their work file and follows them. Sadly it takes a few sacrificial lambs before either they change their bullying ways or they get managed out for being a toxic operator. They rarely change, and when they feel the chop coming turn the toxic aggro up to eleven to go out with a bang. Hideous pieces of work.

She would have got approval or even told to do it from higher up personnel.

That’s what I thought but not sure on the law here. They will often put a proposition to people over here basically saying ‘you can stay but we will be on top of you all the time or you can move to this department or take this big pay off’ HR are a joke.

My Mrs sacks people all the time. (With good reason though not like the above)

every time my gf moans to her mum about wanting to move to Portugal (which is a lot), her mum always says there is a lot less protection in work and employee rights being way behind, which people take for granted in the UK

Some things are better some worse. Get more holidays here and parental/ maternity leave is better Also you can work from home if available to you, if you have kids under 3.

Pay is terrible in general and workers’ rights are definitely a bit all over the place.

I kinda prefer working here but is definitely more precarious.
