I still don't get why on earth you would sign, really makes no sense to me.

Have you ommitted anything?

ce ci nes pas une voiture etc

as others have said, I absolutely wouldn't have signed either letter - they could hardly hold you prisoner and force you to sign anything.  now it's done I think you'd be hard pushed to win a case against them.  the lawyer who has agreed to take it on stands to make money whatever the outcome, so i wouldn't place too much store on their advice.  put it down to experience, be glad you're not working there anymore, and go get 'em in the  new job imo.

Yeah no chance i would sign anything. Would rather walk home in the rain, absolutely ridiculous spot to be in though. No money? No phone of your own? I dont get it, everyone i know who has a company phone has two phones and most people carry their wallet on them which would have some means of getting you home in it.

I had money but not enough for train ticket, wallets went out with phone boxes

There are still public telephones though, and surely you can find somewhere (a pub maybe) where someone will let you make a phone call if to tell them you're stranded. Even the police will phone home for you if you're stuck.


I ran out of fuel on the A1 near Tuxford at about 3am once. I flagged a police Range Rover down and he gave me a lift to a garage and then drove me back to my truck.

After I put the diesel in it wouldn't start so he gave me a tow, then to finish off he gave me a ticket for having a bald tyre.

I didn't mind though. Fair's fair. He was a decent bloke.

Agree Tom, but when u have not been expecting something like this I should remember my boy scout moto `Be Prepared`

[horseplayer]

To sack somebody for misconduct they must have a process to follow?

Go to a Citzens Adivce Bureau and make an appointment with an employment specialist

This can be done within 24 hours

Free advice, go through your options

To apply for a Tribunal hearing to contest a Gross Misconduct costs around £1200, which is why many people don't contest

Yep £1200 to enter.

Potential compensation and costs back.......put up a staking thread

I'm not an especially hard man, obviously harder than most, but still open to reason.

They would have had to assault me, pretty grievous for them if they chose this route, to get the phone and car keys off me.

Don't mean to make light but I mean what I say there
