Hello All
RTL, I do hope your Grandson makes a good recovery. I am very sorry that you are having great difficulty sleeping and after your mishap on the stairs, you sound very exhausted.
Employers were supposed to care about staff welfare, but I saw very little of it and you really do have my deepest sympathy.
Before covid, I was falling asleep at work and so tired I would lay my head on my arms on my desk and they had me in the Office threatening me with dismissal if I couldn't keep up, but I was exhausted, so I wrote asking for ill-health retirement which was acknowledged by letter.
Their own Occ Health G.P., listened to me and sent me for an M.R.I. brain scan and then they could see from the scans why I had this terrible trouble.
After my scan they said I was incapable and sacked me whilst awaiting the Medical Board Decision of Three Doctors (in breach of their formal Pension procedure Rules).
My Trade Union took them to the Appeal Panel and my employer lost.
Louisa, I hope your husband's eye operation is successful.
Viktoria, I hope all is working as it should and settling nicely.
Yes, Gillg has more sun and milder weather, than Roobarb's chilly coastal location where bracing winds blow in!
