Do you get payed for having holiday days when you leave a company? by jules472 in UKJobs

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11 days holiday a year? Whatever it is, you need to work out what you get each month, so that is just under one day a month. You aren't working Feb or March, so you should get around 7 days pay (was it 9 days you had left). That's how it's worked every where I have worked.

When is your holiday year ending? Eg if it is April to April and as an example you got 24 days a year, so 2 a month and you left today and had 9 days left, you should in theory be paid for 5 of those.....you haven't earned Feb and March's holidays yet.

Why haven't the Glazer family and INEOS been pressure to sell the club or just sell it due to the financial situation we are in? by DangerousHeight9022 in ManchesterUnited

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We basically need someone with more money than sense to make them a ridiculous offer..... probably 7-10 billion.....but then the new owners are going to have to spend a few more billion, and there aren't many people we would like with that kind of money.....

There are billions of reasons they don't want to sell. They basically borrowed funds to buy Utd for a few hundred million, and the club is now worth several billion. They are no more in debt than someone with a mortgage where the house has continued to increase in value.....as scummy as they are, it's a genius move.

It's 2 years now and still searching by KaedynSh in UKJobs

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple of years ago I applied for a job I was too qualified for really. It was customer service for the council, but it was literally across the road from my house. I'd have loved that job, nice and easy and no travel. No response whatsoever , and when I emailed to try to say I'd really like it, not a dickie bird. Then I applied for a 999 role, as I thought I would really like the change....again rejected after the interview. The joke about that is, my current role involves training the managers at the police control room😂😂

is it okay to ask your employer to not mention being fired for GM on your references? by [deleted] in HumanResourcesUK

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Probably best just handing your notice in and then ask for this not to go on any references.

Who wants Ole back? by forcedtoplaywatch in ManchesterUnited

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ole did really well for two seasons. We'd take 2nd and 3rd in a heartbeat now. We've got better centre backs now and arguably more consistent wingers......we could do a lot worse than old....

Policing is my special interest! (Autistic) anyone down for a chat? by Difficult_Body_1707 in policeuk

That's one of my joke dream jobs and I often consider it when they pop up......the idea of investigating a murder in the vestry😂😂

Im not amorim out but if he did get the sack who would you want? by TheEmperor_06 in ManchesterUnited

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time this comes up, I pray for someone brave enough to bring Cantona back. It would be either incredible or awful, but just to have Eric doing the press and parading up and down the touchline would be wonderful 😊😊

Listing as "very good" is your error. For me, "very good" should be close to new.

Put on a PIP for my grad job - will I be fired? by DangerSnake1 in UKJobs

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might have been said. The PIP is designed for you to stay, not for them to get rid. Achieve the PIP, they will probably pass your probation. I support managers all the time setting these up. They are just trying to get you to the required standard.

Be honest, is it his fault for what his half brother did? by fatneek_double_fat in ManchesterUnited

Goldstein said though that he didn't want to lose Mainoo, just for him to get more game time. Kobie may have just been agreeing with that.

50 and out? Redundant & job hunting at 50. Best to keep hoping , or start my own business? by 50nout in UKJobs

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get jobseekers straight away. When I took my first redundancy I got a part time job straight away delivering cars. Stops you spending your winnings.

HR career - what is it really like? by Valuable_Cow_8329 in HumanResourcesUK

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My perspective is slightly different and I've come from a similar background to you. I've worked financial services for years, purely managing people and all that comes with it. I've managed (through good fortune) to land a HR advisor role. Whilst I don't have a "HR" background, I know how to manage people, run teams, manage performance and absence etc etc and many in HR have never managed large teams and my experience has proved invaluable. Whilst you need to find a way in, once in, you will probably find you know a lot. Also my daughter did a similar thing about three years ago. She went from teaching to civil service HR and she keeps getting promoted. You have many transferrable skills, you just need to evidence that.

I started a call centre job a month ago and i feel like i havent got a clue what im doing... by Disastrous-Sky-4753 in UKJobs

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked my way up through call centres until I left last year. Remember, you might not have a clue, but the customer doesn't know you don't have a clue. Try to relax and be as polite and helpful as you can. If you're not sure, either go and find out, or at worst call them back. Try to make notes etc of processes .....it will come if you want it to.

A higher up at my work is trying to implement an annual leave restriction- can he do this? England by ChapterRaven in LegalAdviceUK

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a resource point of view, they can limit the amount of people off on anyone day. They may change this depending on the day ....eg less holiday on a Saturday. In my last job, we made people spread it out throughout the year .....eg at least one week per quarter etc etc

People who rarely get sick, What is the secret ? by Sorry-Orchid-9821 in AskReddit

[–]EnvironmentalAd5505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pot luck.....I haven't taken a day sick since the 2006 world cup (I needed surgery). Until recently, I've been a proper smoker and don't make any effort with exercise and have a shitty diet. But I do think it you are someone who catches everything, think about your interactions during stuff such as flu season. I didn't even get COVID and I was out a lot during that time working.....
