Do Work have to provide me transport?

Hi everyone, I have a dissiplinary for imsubordination. The thing is it’s not at the place at work and at the head office 1/2 hr away. I don’t drive. I’ve told them and they’ve told me to catch the bus. Do work have to provide me transport to get to the dissiplinary?

Yes they do have to pay, I think you should refuse to go unless they pay up.

(does employer a favour.....)

So you’re saying that you’re the real EZA’s mother? Father?

You’re not very alike are you?

SleepIsForTheWeek · 09/05/2018 18:48

It's Head Office, not another branch, and presumably that is where the HR department are located who will be carrying out the disciplinary. Don't sweat the small stuff.

Your post made me think of Eddie and Saffy from Ab Fab Grin

@EZA15 you seem to have had your Mumsnet hacked, are you ok?

Caaarrrl · 09/05/2018 18:52

Very odd. The OP's previous posts are extremely legible and well written.

What a strange post

BishopBrennansArse · 09/05/2018 18:59
Hmm
MissMary0fSweden · 09/05/2018 18:59

Try hard.

Bluntness100 · 09/05/2018 19:02

Something not right here. The op states in other threads she's has a ore school age kid, so I'm not sure where the daughter came in.

Op, are you drunk?

blaaake · 09/05/2018 19:10

Lol. You ok Hun?

Bluntness100 · 09/05/2018 19:11

Actually scrub the drunk, this is a kid posting. A teenager. Whose mum has refused to help them because she agrees with the manager.

EZA15 · 09/05/2018 20:06

Well, this is the last time I leave my phone open. It wasn’t me posting but rather my friends step daughter who has, Indeed, been invited to a hearing for insubordination. I refused to assist as I know how difficult she is at work (I know members of a team who work on the same floor as her and have heard the arguments).

Thanks to the poster to tagged me as that’s how I realised I had ‘posted’ a thread. I have to say that some of the answers on this thread have made me laugh - particularly the P45 bus. There is a page open on my phone asking the route of the P45 bus 😂😂

Well that makes more sense! Glad you found it slightly amusing. P45 bus Grin.

Smeddum · 09/05/2018 20:16

How rude! Was she joking? Please tell me she was joking?

EZA15 · 09/05/2018 20:21

Smeddum unfortunately she’s not. She genuinely believes that work should pay her transport. Her step mum refused to assist to came over to mine so I would assist. I have no idea why she thinks I would help her. I have, however, tried to tell her that she needs to get a grip and find her way there should she want to keep her job but it seems to be falling on deaf ears. She has left now —stormed out—

Strike through fail!

Smeddum · 09/05/2018 20:24

She sounds lovely! Doesn’t she think that going on your phone and your MN account was a bit fucking rude?
Probably not given her lack of self awareness and self absorption.
Fair play to you for taking it as a joke OP, I’d be really pissed off!

NeedForBlossom · 09/05/2018 20:24

op do let us know how she gets on Grin

Smeddum · 09/05/2018 20:28

Haha I do want to hear how it goes. I suspect the P45 bus might be a reality fairly shortly Grin

FannyFifer · 09/05/2018 20:36

Lol at her looking up the P45 bus, brilliant. Grin

northbynorthwesty · 09/05/2018 20:41

She good wit spelling tho SmileGrin

SamHeughansLeftEyebrow · 09/05/2018 20:42

😂

P45 bus.

Thank you phone hacking friend's SD for making my evening.

EZA15 · 09/05/2018 20:48

Haha my friend has had her fill of her today and she’s having a crap time so it’s easier for me to piss her off so she storms off and then I can have a proper natter without the fear of everything we discuss being discussed elsewhere.

Her spelling gives me shudders. She thinks that it’s fine and she doesn’t need it. Her spelling and grammar genuinely makes me sad.
