thinking of you!!!
Oh my!
Keep fighting and good luck with everything!
Just read through all this, what an outrage! Just wanted to wish you the best of luck, Netix, and remember to take care of yourself and bub throughout. :hug:
Stay strong huni...Your doing everything right. Much love xx
Any updates?
Also stopped by to see if there was an update....still thinking of you
Sorry to have abandoned this thread for so long. I haven't had much internet or computer available of late. As it is, I am in the library on public 'puters!
Anyway, thank you all for your support and thoughts throughout this. All I can say is that the issue was not resolved through Fair Work Aust, but we did reach a settlement out of court.
If anyone is in a similar situation to me, or feels like they could be and may pursue things legally (or just feel things are going pear shaped at work as I did), KEEP NOTES on discussions, conversations, copies of emails, etc, etc, etc AS THEY HAPPEN (obviously you may not be able to stop work just to write notes, but do it on your lunch break/on the train on the way home/in the car around the corner from work, etc). This is for your eyes only, no one else at work. Make all of your notes as detailed as possible, with times, dates, body language, etc, as accurately as you remember them. From a legal standpoint, these "contemporaneous notes" can be very useful.
I'm glad you've been able to resolve it ...
Are you satisfied with the outcome?
:hug:
I found that to be very true, Netix, on two occasions with two different employers (one of which went to EOC and settled at mediation). Contemporaneous notes are gold, and so often much, much better than the arrogant self-assurance of power hungry bosses :hug:
Peanutter, I am reasonably happy with the outcome. I would have loved to also have stayed there, but it seemed that everyone had been turned against me, and it seemed the best thing to do. The settlement amount could have been better than anything I may have ended up with had I taken it to court, so all in all, I guess I need to say reasonably happy. That, and the lack of stress of having to go through the whole court process.
sounds like a positive outcome to a crap situation, then :hug:
Netix - glad things have settled. xxx
