[QUOTE="luceeloo, post: 1252160, member: 78468"] It's definitely come from him. Basically, we both had an informal, pre-interview chat with one of the Senior Managers yesterday morning. He's a decent bloke who I get on well with, and he brought up all of my strengths and then negated it with the comment "but you do have your health problems, and you've needed time for medical appointments, so we have to take that into consideration". I did correct him there and then, and told him that my health is not an issue, and that I haven't used any work time for medical appointments. I know that it's come from "the lad"... I work in a small team, and there's just him, another female colleague and my line manager who know that I used flexi time recently for my annual review. My female colleague is on holiday, my line manager hasn't been involved in the process and wouldn't say anything anyway, which leaves the sneaky snake who had his informal chat right before I had mine. I suspect that snakey didn't realise that I took flexi for the appointment and thinks that I used the works time. Getting my sickness record is a good idea - I think that I've taken about 4 days off in 6 years. (The snake has taken about 8 in 15 months). I was just so angry for the rest of the working day that I couldn't think straight, and couldn't think what the best thing to do was. But on Monday morning I shall set about righting this wrong officially and properly. [/QUOTE]
