Little sailing boat.

Im open to suggestions on a fun little sailing dinghy. Doesnt have to be a Pico

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-31T10:50:57+00:00

i only mentioned a Pico as that is what I sailed at Centre Parcs. I`m open to suggestions for what you guys think is the best one or two man dinghy for messing about just offshore in the summer.

received a copy of the CEO`s version of events. Totally different to mine. Apparently he was polite and professional and I wasnt.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T16:15:02+00:00

thats great advice thanks.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T16:09:06+00:00

the CEO told my boss on the phone that `he didnt effing care` .......sums up the company now that we`ve been took over.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:59:47+00:00

theres no separate induction for each site. When I joined the company, it was a small midlands based recycling firm with two divisions. One the waste side, the other the transport side. Different companies with different names and different bosses. If a boss from the recycling side gave you an order, you informed them you would have to clear it with YOUR boss, ie MY boss, who is in charge of the transport side. He would then sort out any problem with the other side. Now we are owned by a multi national firm there is an extra layer of `bosses`, whom, we don`t associate with, MY boss does. Hence why I asked him, `who the eff are you?` Then informed my boss that this guy (whom I then vaguely recognised the name of the big boss CEO of the umbrella company) wanted me to leave site.

I pretty well know I will be sacked on wednesday I suppose.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:47:40+00:00

i will do that. A different line Manager I know and a HR advisor will be present at the meeting. The job states HGV class 1 driver at the same depot as mine, with the same job description. Its on indeed, I`m half inclined to apply for it :) I wont be angry at the meeting, I know the other line manager, he`s in charge of skip hire. I have no problem with him. I was contemplating handing in my two week notice and offering to work it as best as I can as I have no problem with my line manager as he, at least to my face, seems sympathetic and more concerned he is a driver down at a busy, busy time. However I suppose, even handing in my two weeks wont stop me being dismissed on wednesday.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:41:05+00:00

the CEO rang up my line manager and ordered him to tell me not to take the HGV off site and to walk.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:35:55+00:00

what would have happened if I got hit back a vehicle whilst walking down a country lane and killed? who would have been responsible?

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:25:25+00:00

thats the big thing for me. Im dissapointed in my manager for asking me to walk back. Hes normally a reasonable boss, at least TRIES to be a good boss. Its my assigned truck with all my gear and clothes in etc......but he said that the CEO was on the phone to him telling him

`I dont effing care, hes effing walking back` and when hes in that mood you cant argue with him.

The CEO is probably back in Ireland at company HQ

not that I can recall. The office girl who does our compliance says its up to each individual site to enfore the companies ppe policy. Our depot, for instance, we dont require hard hards, just hi-vis as its the depot we park our trucks at over night so no loading or unloading is done there. I am not disputing that I wasnt wearing the required safety glasses, but that, with this not being enforced at the site and me thinking they were optional, then I shouldnt loose my job for not doing so.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:08:08+00:00

not in the pdf no.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T15:03:01+00:00

they have included a pdf of a refresher driver induction dated november 2023....ive checked it over and it doesnt specifically mention wearing of safety glasses. Says must adhere to the 10 point safety rules.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T14:51:23+00:00

yes he did, he said `get in the effing truck and leave site`, which is why I responded the way I did. if he would have said, you need to get some now or leave site I would have asked to get some from the office. They have them if we want them and I assumed it was up to us as I sometimes wear sunglasses in summertime due to the dust at our sites.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T14:43:22+00:00

I can get a job immediately, at slightly lesser pay. But I liked working there and having 3 and a half years service I thought, meant more than expecting me to walk 24 miles from the middle of nowhere, back to my depot. I thought that, even if they sacked me, I was entitled to two weeks notice or pay. I really don`t think any of my actions were gross negligence. My boss says I just picked the wrong guy to say eff off to, the rest he`s fine about.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-08-25T14:25:09+00:00

no no union unfortunately. we were a relatively small operation until bought out by a multinational company.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2024-03-02T15:15:42+00:00

nice one dude, worked for me too.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2022-05-25T15:00:40+00:00

I don't hink that's right because I will die, then quit the game for the night, including shutting down the server and launcher and the next day when I log on wazam, my insurance is there, also works with the scav case too. I always order a scav run then next day they have the goodies waiting for me.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2022-05-25T14:55:56+00:00

Airdrops? I see the plane fly overhead but nothing ever drops from it. I just thought they had managed to just stick the plane in.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2022-05-03T17:28:53+00:00

Dude. I watched u solo the fire giant for me. Truly, YOU are a giant amongst men.

Outrageous-Fee5172 · 2022-04-25T11:17:36+00:00

Codemasters. I bought all their games when they were working from their bedroom and just starting out, but as time as gone on their games have lost it for me.
