James lost his job



he came home early today because his contract has ended with no notice due to lack of funding!!

the plot thickens

he called his agency and they say they were told its because he hasnt worked a full week in he time hes been there which is B.S

the only time he has taken off is to take me to scan/midwife etc and each time that has happened they have said its fine not a problem...

and all his time sheets are 4ohours!

so he goes back to pick up a photo he left on his desk...

they say thats rubbish its just due to funding

ahhhhh

its complicated he is technically self employed through an agency and an umbrella company, it was ment to be a rolling contract every three months. because he is a contract worker they can pretty much do what they like.....

he can complain with the way hes been treated but thats bout it

So he's like a subcontractor?

Such a shame but hopefully he'll find something else soon. Unfortunately I don't think theres an awful lot you can do about it

Has he decided what he's going to do? Find a new job? If he has to then I wish him the best of luck in finding one quickly!
