How would you feel if you received this email?

[SamCam349]

Is this (below) a nice email to receive? What would you think of the sender who wrote it??

‘I will reluctantly speak to you next Tuesday to attempt to address your discriminatory actions. As I mentioned last week, I, personally, do not consider you to be that important, and I would not be entertaining this call were your manager not also be participating.’

Wow, that really is very annoying!

I think that was in the US and the OP did come back. There was some sort of military decoration in it.

Fucks sake. She still hasn’t come back then to confirm or deny all allegations ?? 🤣🤣

I say...sack her 🤣😁

Impossible to say without the back story. You can’t expect people to answer without knowing more.

@YouTheCat that was a different locked safe thread and the OP had a locksmith open it and there were two Mexican coins in it!

That was an awful email OP.
No doubt about it.
But you now need to get yourself out there pronto.
Update your CV and go to every agency you possibly can.
In person, nicely dressed, if possible.
If you need a job urgently then print out lots of CVs and go round all the local bars and restaurants and get what you can.
Good luck and I'm sorry you've had such a shit time.

Ok so I got fed up of scrolling through this bizarre thread at pg9. Who sent the frickin’ email? The OP or a colleague? It’s a shitty email and v. unprofessionally written, but I’d love to know WTF’s actually going on here!!!!

All you need to do is change your settings to highlight OP's posts to find this out.

If that’s your attitude towards colleagues well easy to see how you was sacked.

It may be the case that OP has been bullied out of her job on discriminatory grounds, though. If OP has a protected characteristic and is the only one in her department/company with this characteristic, it's possible that the recipient of the email is a bigot, but a clever one, who has been subtly needling OP for some time while also subtly pushing the idea that people with [OP's protected characteristic] are oversensitive, that OP has a chip on her shoulder, etc. Don't forget that, despite all the equality/diversity regulations, the last couple of years have made bigots feel rather more comfortable with their bigotry, and if there are other bigots in the company, there might well be a collective attitude that OP's unhappiness is her own fault, that OP is a 'snowflake' and a 'bad team player' when OP is just sick of being teased or talked down to all the time.

It's also possible that the company is a small company, without much HR support, and a tendency not to bother too much about employment law because the bosses see it as a 'family' enterprise, etc.

OP, if you are a union member, talk to your union rep. If you are not a union member, it might be worth talking to Citizens' Advice. I appreciate that you may not want to return to this workplace now but if you have been the victim of discrimination or unfair dismissal then your employers could be obliged to pay you compensation for this.

And, of course, it's also possible that OP is crap at her job and resents being managed in any way, and has been stirring the shit in the workplace for a while before sending this email. We simply don't have enough information.

How can you expect to keep a job after sending an email like that

Finding it hard to believe this is genuine, especially and you jumped to becoming homeless. Are you trying to get money out of mumsnet?

@TheLittleDogLaughed I was so much more confused after the 20 pages than I was at the start of the thread! Wasted 30mins of my life😂😂

@SamCam349 YABVU!!!

@Tonnerre

All you need to do is change your settings to highlight OP's posts to find this out.

How do you do this? i cant see how to do it

To save the hassle of changing settings as I'm thick and don't know how to do it can someone please give a quick update on what the bloody hell went on ?

@lily2493, go to the Talk heading at the top, hit the circle with a v in it, and thereafter it's reasonably obvious.

@Kitchendiscodiva
Basically op sent that email and has been sacked.
Why? We don't know as it wouldn't have been for the email.

I don't think the job suited. Onwards and upwards OP. A back story would have been helpful though.

Why? We don't know as it wouldn't have been for the email.

Yes. The email alone would be a sackable offence. Not only was it offensive, it was also extremely unprofessional. The email obviously came after a series of events, of which we are not participants. No one is sacked, without due cause. No one is sacked, on the spot, as it were, unless for gross misconduct.

Unless you really are ‘Sam Cam’ and you sent it to your husband. In which case, brava! 😂
