Well done maggiewinchester, a decision that must have taken a lot of thought - more thought than your employers had for you. |

I don't think the problem is employers being inconsiderate but employers promoting ignorant bullies. |

Thanks Fly - it's just a precaution. My dentist noticed a 'lesion' under my tongue and, in his own words 'It's either a sharp tooth or cancer'. Fortunately, despite the work related stress (overwork), I'm not a 'stressy' person. Dentist sent me to a maxio-facial specialist, who pointed out I had a lump the other side too - it was probably tonsil tissue. I've still got my tonsils - something the dentist didn't ask! However, she offered the biopsy 'just in case', as I smoke. |

Agree Sharron, it's like a class system - the hierarchy (the majority of whom got dogs when told they could 'work' from home) have no idea what the admin do, and things 'they' don't want to do are shoved onto the admin. Our line manager didn't even 'lower' herself to sit with us, but was more than happy to tell us what we 'should' be doing. She had one course to do - we have 10+. |

OFITG - the letter was written in a constructive dismissal claim way as I intend contacting ACAS, but as my stress hasn't led to depression, but physical problems, the latest ones in May & June - Arrhythmia and Gastritis, it may be difficult. However, to leave the managers wondering brings me a glow :-D |

Well done Maggie. I really can't understand how your line manager has got away6 with their attitude and/or your welfare people. I have worked for both local government and Civil service and welfare was always excellent as was HR. They were always wary of following proper procedure. Enjoy your work break and regain your health. :-) |
