    Re: Employer requesting I visit head office

    Originally posted by maff81 View Post
    Always honest and head office rang and said that made a huge mistake in asking me to travel there, they were having a moment, also back to work . After I explained what happened with Machine and proved that I had indeed copies of the faults and an engineers report suggesting machine would not be used do to health and safety and causing discomfort to drivers, they were most appalled at Supervisor expecting me to use said machine. I was told that in no uncertain terms was I to be sacked form said company as I have done nothing wrong, Supervisor has taken his role a bit to "Jobsworthy" and taken it upon himself to dish out advice and the wrong advice at that. I was grateful at any advice given by LB but did find certain persons to be quite personal and off putting. And yes I might not be able to afford advice from certain people on here, but to write that is quite offensive and snobbish. I did not want the answers to suit myself just the right answers, oh and the hours of work are to be changed back as they were not changed by head office but by the supervisor, so unless you speak out no one can hear you.
    Hi Maff,

    I've come across supervisors and managers like the one in your case before and, to be honest, employers would do themselves and their employees a big favour by getting rid of such idiots. If employers were to do this instead of burying their heads in the sand and letting the matter get to the stage where it becomes a problem - and a potentially expensive problem - I would not be surprised if it lead to a drop in the number of days lost through sickness due to the actions of these prats, a reduction in industrial relations problems and, consequentially, industrial tribunals. Employers need to wake up to the damage supervisors and managers of the type highlighted in your case can do to a business.
    Life is a journey on which we all travel, sometimes together, but never alone.

      Maff
      I am sorry if you took what I said in a negative way. When I said you couldn't afford Eloise I was trying to let you know this is someone who is at the top of her game and doesn't ask questions for no reason. It had nothing to do with your wealth or actual ability to pay.

      I am glad you got it sorted, there are always people like your supervisor who exceed their authority . Well done

        I'm not and wasn't angry...I just clarified why you were being asked for specific responses and I asked you for the end result as it's interesting to see what happens to OP's.

          Maybe next time may be better to talk to the managment if getting nowhere put it in writing communication works
