Grandad.Malky Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Did the other person have these higher skills, why you and not her that’s my point, where you graded as you said, was your grade worse than others in the same position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee2 Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 The other person I was up against apparently had higher skills than me. I had been there 4.5 years, she had been there 5 months. I had greater experience, she had none prior to this job, she was always making mistakes, I wasn't, so quite honestly I think it's all a big fit up. They've brought a guy in as the 'manager'. He used to work there but has come back today on the request on the management. He's will be doing my job as part of his duties. I'm so peed off, it's untrue right now.

Grandad.Malky Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Its up in the air isn’t it; you have experience, the other person as the qualifications. The thing about grading people for redundancy is that the criteria can be manipulated to suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee2 Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Yeah, I noticed that. I've seen it happen before. It's supposed to be a fair system but it can be anything but. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee2 Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Thanks for the link barts96. I'm back in on Friday for a final meeting with them. Might just look into that before then. Feeling very peed off at the moment. Feels like they knew exactly what they were doing and planned it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
