Hi all,
Hubbie had his annual meeting last weeek. Has been with the company for 8 years and worked his way up to General Manager. At his meeting last year there were some minor issues, most of which he rectified this year (sales up, wages down etc).
He was then told in this meeting (nobody representing him) that he was being let go. His choice was to take 3 months wages, bonus and holidays and get a good reference or (and I quote) "there's the door".
The condition was that he have his resignation in by the following morning. He panicked and sent it in.
The issues which they pointed out to him (reason for dismissal) were that merchandising wasn't up to scratch ie shop didn't look good enough.
They did mention this but never in a "if-you-don't-sort-it-you-lose-your-job" kind of way.
Hubby would have done anything to keep his job. He is never late, never off sick, has relocated 3 times in 3 years at their request.
What should we do? It just seems so unfair! He is the main breadwinner, we have small kids and now facr losing our house.
