Work grievances


guy at work had a mental breakdown at work last week and started to referring himself in the third person, before being taken home by his wife. Unbeknownst to anyone before he started (around 2 months ago) he was diagnosed as bipolar 2 years prior. For reasons I dont know, he doesnt appear to have been hospitalised for this event. He claims he will be back at work in 10 days time. Apparently he has been carrying on with the third person marrative on Instagram as well.

I dont manage him, but work closely with him. Frankly speaking I dont want him back after all the above. Do I have any case to raise a grievance if he is let back in and I am told to work with the guy?

WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this serious ??????????????????????????????????

He`s unwell, he`s off sick as he`s unwell, he`s not dangerous, why the F shouldn`the be allowed back to work once he`s well enough ?????

He should be supported, not vilified.

You really are one vile human being.
 
because i didnt know about his condition, and hadnt seen how he behaved when he had an episode.

Now I do/have.

Fairly logical you would think.
Be better off learning about the condition and how you can be supportive and know what to look for if there is a reoccurrence of the event. This may be something that the company can get behind too.

I have no idea if there are any genuine risks but referring to yourself in the third person just pushes the boundary of quirky. He's probably highly embarrassed by all this and a bit more understanding would make the world a better place.

Anyway that's my serious post for the day.

paying way to much respect to the post, Saturday morning, city away, could do with a good show, nerves are fraught.

In related news, (this is all lies btw) I have a colleague at work in a wheel chair, but part of their contraption squeaks and I don't like it, can anyone guide me through a means of harassing and persecuting this differently abled person for my own amusement please.

:/

The irony being you work at the WD40 factory.
 
I absolutely love an office character, they make the day so much better. I love watching people hate them too. I don't often talk to them, the guy above probably doesn't know I exist

I only go into the office twice a week but the best thing is, the characters love the office every day so I'll always see them
Guy who worked in a different department sent a leaving email to all the staff. Didn’t have a clue who he was. No only was the email a personal flex on his performance, he signed it off ‘hasta la pasta baby’
 
There’s a guy that’s recently joined our project and he’s trying way too hard to look good by being proactive and positive all the time. We’ll soon beat that out of him.

Anyhoo, he uses the phrase “just to try and tease more out” in almost every meeting and subsequently I hope someone teases his spine from his limp body.

Force him to run over you, bang a claim in and grab your passport 🤩
 
The wife had just returned to work in August after maternity leave to be placed at risk of redundancy in September.

Then after 4 weeks on sick returned to no return to work interview and straight to redundancy consultation meeting one.

After asking a number of basic questions in the meeting the risk of redundancy revoked and moved to a new team.

All while public ads for jobs at her level were advertised before she was placed in a team and her new manager has shared the team has grown x3 in the last few months.

Discrimanation alive and well.

Document the lot, especially the 'redundancy consultation'. If they are gearing up to cut a few, the decision has been suggested if not actioned fully yet. Get every detail, conversation, email, txt message you can. Because if they try it on again, they're breaking the law again and there are some powerful forces that live for new mums penalised for having children. It's misogynistic, it's harassment, it's against labor policy, it is illegal.

Bury them if you can.
