I work with a woman who keeps making comments such as "I need to get me one of those restriction things" or "I'll get a flexible working plan for my diabetic cat"
My pump failed yesterday and went in dka i was vomiting abd felt like ****. Told boss i was going home to doctors, his reply to me was that i was full of it and I only wanted to go home because it was sunny! I will be taking this further! Where do these people get their man management skills from. I am hurt and upset that he could say such things!

I wish this is the last time you ever hear such simple-minded, inconsiderate comments. My experience has taught me to toughen up about them, because unless they're living with the disease, they don't know what they're talking about (and many times, even if they have the disease they're just as clueless). Every diabetic is different, just like every person with an opinion differs.Her comments about me were very hurtful...
Just a quickie, not so easily done; especially in the industrial world. Office workers seem to think that "join a union" will solve the problem. In the industrial world, you will be let go (laid off) and black balled. This is reality.Just a quickie for those having workplace issues. Are any of you in unionised workplaces? If not I’d join one or go about setting it up. Whilst you can air your grievances to HR you’ll be better off having someone to back you up. They do hold a lot of clout.

Sometimes, proactive means you don't have a job.This is a prediction. With Brexit looming and a lack of EU input such as the working time directive we will return to a state where the unions will become common place. Without the eu the workplace situation will become far worse. I may be wrong only time will tell. There has always been sacrifices when starting things up again it’s custom and practice. On my watch I never lost a single case. Things must have a starting point. I’ve heard it in the retail sector a lot. People unhappy people getting crapped on you ask them to be proactive they do nothing well nothing does exactly that

Yes, rights are eroded, but one must support the family, no matter the cost. And I would be most pleased to buy you a pint either way!Tol puddle martyrs
So if you’re working your what’s it off and you’re rights are eroded is it worth you staying ? Or will you hop job to job until hopefully one day you get something semi worthwhile? If indeed that ever happens. When we leave the eu and the floor crumbles beneath us the will be only one option and that is a return to unions. They were a force to be reckoned with and they will again. If I’m right the pints on you
My God. Really?I work with a woman who keeps making comments such as "I need to get me one of those restriction things" or "I'll get a flexible working plan for my diabetic cat"
Yes. That can happen in disorganised companies. Choose your employer safely. Don't sign with illegal practicing bosses.Sometimes, proactive means you don't have a job.
Wrong people in the wrong job. I did retail for decades. Some not fit to ride a horse never mind look after staff.This is a prediction.

Thats why unions are needed more. Unions are only as strong as their members. Unions should be more selective in who they recruit.Just a quickie, not so easily done; especially in the industrial world. Office workers seem to think that "join a union" will solve the problem.

Economist on Today programme this morning talking how weak unions have effectively allowed employers to set pay levels as an explanation for the fall in real wages since Feb 2008.Thats why unions are needed more. Unions are only as strong as their members. Unions should be more selective in who they recruit.
I was a member of RMT then TESSA on the railways. They are solid unions but some very weak members.
Unions need to educate their members more. This will strengthen their support.
A union is the best way to fight any unscrupulous boss. Believe me. Why do you think they hate them do much? They get them sacked.
You cannot be sacked legally for being in a union. Fact.
