yeah i know, even a pen is theft. as of now we still dont know why, but i am urging her to find out if she can. im sure she would remember if she did something serious. shes not a younger person so not as likely to do something like skip work for 4 days etc. so if she documents everything and it turns out that the dismissial (if that what it turns out to be) wasnt done right she can legal action?

yeah, how on earth can you defend yourself if you dont know what its about! when i had to deal with this in my last job i had to give date/place/time/reason/evidence/chance to change meeting time if needed, all written in a letter for the employee. but in this case it hasnt happened. surely this isnt right. i honestly cant see how it is, if it is thats just stupid and unfair. esp for someone who has worked for a company for 8 years, gets bugger all pay rises, never complains ALWAYS does her job to the best of her ability, does extra hours, copes with all the new systems and things they throw at her and THIS is how they repay her? ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!! :an!gry

yeah, she has been told to bring a support person along. pity i cant be there with her! we live 10 hours drive away from each other! livingart, thanks for the link

true, i have done a little research though. this isnt for me, although ive had to deal with this before i wanted to check what others thought. someone i know has been told that she has commited serious misconduct and has been called to a meeting. thats it. no further information. to me this is wrong? am i right?

hi all when dealing with misconduct or serious misconduct you have to give written notice of meeting and reasons dont you? :dunno:

lol my mum just wanted to know and here is the best place to find out the odd things that shes asks! thanks

does anyone know how long and wide a train carriage would be approximately? thanks

Hi, does anyone know a really good dress maker in the Dunedin area? thanks :happy2:

yes but what is normal? lol ive always thought that the people who you are odd or abnormal are the strange ones!!! life is too boring to be normal.

so there are some wise people around here. i have realised that there is always someone who can offer advice, support and humour. this is a great place if you need anything, its always my first point of call! its all greatly appreciated, thanks everyone

thanks Ethanyo, i almost forgot it was that close. my mum reminded me the other day.... the things you forget when you have a young baby lol!! :facepalm:

26......27 in 11 days

ive found demand feeding is better for my girl. babies tend to cluster feed early evening so they can sleep longer at night. i have also found that if i wake her before she is ready she gets seriously grumpy and it is also hard to get her to feed and she tends to fall asleep while feeding. i know different things work for different babies but thats just what ive found.

hi all, just a quick update.... went to osteopath on monday, he said her hip was tight, he loosened it off, tried to do some other things but she started screaming, for what reason i dont know but the monday night sleep was much better, was 2 lots of 3hours, so thats better than the weekend. tuesday she didnt hardly sleep in her bassinet, but did a few short sleeps in it. that night she slept 12.30am til 5.30 (yes it was a late night but atleast she slept) wednesday not sleeping much in her bassinet either, but we are getting there. that night she slept 12am until.....7am!!! i couldnt believe it, i was blown away when my partner got up for work and she was still asleep. then after her feed she went back down 8.30am to 11.30am. she never used to go back down alone after 6am... HUGE step forward. many people and plunket have told me to try feed/nappy change/feed/play then wrap up and pop into bed.... it works a treat for me.................... now its just getting her to sleep alone during the day!

trying to bottle feed her, but shes not taking it well

yes i am breast feeding, ive had people tell me it could be what im eating, so im am working through all my food to see if that what it is

yes we do. i have plunket coming around tomorrow, hopefully she will have some ideas cos im fresh out!

tired it all....its just so frustrating! oh baby animals.... a walk in the park compared to human babies i say!! :nilly:

ive tried that one, sorry. if she doesnt sleep during the day so wont sleep at night as she is over tired and resists and fighhts sleep like i have never seen before!
