Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
Hi
I've just joined and I am wondering if anyone can help?
I work in the NHS as an admin Assistant. I have worked there for almost 6 years.
I was off sick at the end of last year with stress, depression etc etc. My manager was excellent about this (she had recently got the job!)
The thing is we have had a couple of new people started and one girl inparticular has had time off sick (odd days here and there) so HR have become involved etc. The thing is that a for a couple of days we left the office at the same time at lunch and home time never spent lunch together - she went one way and I went the other. The day after my manager took me in the office under the pretext to find out how I was and proceeded to ask me "I see you have a new friend"? Me: err no who? Her:.....(name of girl) because we have seen you leaving together etc etc and it seems like you are joined at the hip!
Then started to say that I had come a long way after my illness and she didn't want ...(Name of girl) to drag me down as there was a lot of stuff going on with her blah blah blah. She has more or less told me to not bother with D as I may become involved in whatever is happening with her!
What I need to know is can she actually dictate who I can and can't bother with? I still chat to the girl but now am paranoid if we leave the office at the same time!
After that my manager or team leaders have barely acknowledged me! It's really starting to get me down and can see myself going off sick again. I have visited my doctor for my monthly review and she was not happy about it and wants to see me again in 2 weeks! I really don't know what to do.
Sorry to waffle but any help would be appreciated. Sorry I should have added my management really don't like the girl in question they pull her up on every little thing she does so are they involving me to get at her, make me wonder!
Thanks
Debbie
Oh dear, I think you need to look after number 1 here and just be professional and polite to everyone but do discretely try and avoid leaving at the same time as this poor lass. Of course your boss can't dictate who you speak to but she may have been warning you (ie trying to help you)that associating with this lass will harm your reputation.
I would also have a word with your union rep so they are aware of the situation.
Some advice please
Assistant. I have worked there for almost 6 years
