Post by: Milby on 12 January 2012, 21:05

Corse your a suspect, were you talking to that person before hand? Even 30mins before this other person concealed/stole. You could be conspiring together. Who knows and as a precaution you were suspended. Im hoping with full pay?

How do you know it was any of the 3 managers that told some of the general staff? Couldn't the other general staff figure out two have been suspended and one was caught stealing? 2+2=4

as above, wouldnt bother saying sh!t to anyone tbh. will most likely come back round to bite you in the ass...

you moan to head office, they talk to your managers. then your managers will be giving you sh!t for god knows how long for moaning about them


might aswell just say nothing bud, UNLESS, you here or know of a manager b!tching/blaiming you etc behind your back. then definitely say something

so who you gonna sue exactly? what are you going to sue them for and do you have any proof?

so you knew about someone stealing and you didn't tell anyone?

From memory, you're quite young? An thats not insult im just saying when i was young i had something similar happen to me and i was livid that i'd be accused of something like thieving, when it was the parts manager being dodgy, but because i worked in the same department and had unkowingly delivered the part i was also suspended. A week on full pay and then back to work with an apology.

These days its standard procedure to suspend people who may be involved, dont worry about it to much dude, all comes out in the wash!

That's what I was thinking! Then maybe a few weeks off with stress afterwards as you found it difficult to cope with the situation of being suspended and your workmates knowing about it...  :grin:

It'll be up to them to prove you're guilty. Innocent until proven guilty.

Make sure you know your rights, right to representation, union rep, so on and so forth.

Post by: Bellend on 13 January 2012, 19:01
In situations like these I always stay relaxed. Why should I worry?

Then once you're proven innocent, then screw the other guy over as best you can. :smiley:

If you have nothing to worry about then don't. Why is the other guy saying you were in on it? What was the situation?
Title: Re: i am in the right aren't i ?
Post by: RandomJord on 13 January 2012, 20:22
Yeah, details and location of said crime

You've nothing to worry about.



Good advice, moaning and b!tching generally gets you a job with the government JSA department.
If you are innocent then behave like it and get on with life :smiley:

If you knew someone stole something then that is gross misconduct, or otherwise known as asking for it.....

the way i have explained it doesn't make it sound how it actually was but it too hard to explain the full story. there is one team leader who has something against certain members of team and he used the CCTV to find stuff they could discipline us for.

Thats what cctv is for......
If your boss is cnut and wants to get at you, keep your nose clean and change your job.
Being sacked for thieving will seriously impede further career progress. :lipsrsealed:

Well they didnt sack you for doing a little dance every morning!

Theres obviously a lot more to it than can be put on here but lesson learned. Stealings stealing, someoje who steels is a cnut, you got sacked for cool points basically.

Ah but did they sack you properly?!

Who suspended you? Who did the investigation into the alleged crime?

If whoever stole is above you in 'the chain' surely its not up to you to diciplin/question their actions? Between a rock and a hard place comes to mind

but no proof really, just as he was there doesnt mean he knew whay was going on.

saying that, most companies wouldnt be daft enough to sack someone if they thought they had nothing to back it up
