Jobless and skint, but so happy

Well, this morning Ive been grinning like a cheshire cat

For all of you that have read my past thread about my OH boss bullying him the you will no the relief I am now feeling
For months now his boss has taken every little thing out on my OH, Paul has been stressed none stop, working al hours god sends, sometimes going in at 6am and not getting back til 10pm and not being appreciated for it.
Always being talked down to and generally taking all his self worth away from him

This weekend Paul has been oncall, so on saturday when his boss phoned he thought it was a call out, instead he got a load of abuse because his boss couldn't find something that paul has never even seen before,
so the last straw came when his boss gave him a txt this morning at 4.45 am to say 'its 6.30 in the morning and you better not be late'

Well, Paul finally cracked, and I told him to tell his boss where to go, so whilst we'll have no money, if he stays there we wont have a relationship left from the stress

So at presisely 6.30 this morning, Paul turned up at 'work' to hand over his things, while telling his 'boss' 'Im just not taking anymore'
The best part came when his 'boss' in utter shock didnt no what to say, all he could say was 'dont I even get a weeks notice'

So off we go to th jobcentre today, and all though we will be skint and jobless for a while, I cant help but smile, its the best thing that has happened in ages

Good for you! It's a brave thing to do but things can only get better now.
I hope you take this up with a solicitor (see CAB - they're great) and hit that b@s***d in the pocket too!!!
Onwards and upwards.......

Well done Paul. About time too. I hate bullies with a passion - this boss has got his just rewards, and I hope there's many more where that came from.
