Pray for me

[SithHappens]

Thankyou

[macstheman]

Such sad news. Condolences to everyone.

Certainly been a tough month for you and yours, Sith. Hang on in there. Sure things will change for the better soon.

[SithHappens]

It's been rough.

In other less serious news but very much pray for me..

My wife and I have a winter sun break to Cape Verde in December.

Because of all the crap my SIL is going through she asked if she could come too, with MIL too.

So 4 of us going now.

I only say pray for me jokingly, I love em to bits, however I might have to find a bar stool to occupy occasionally for a little peace and quiet.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a bingo session for them most days

Which Island, Sal? We were there a few years ago. Really enjoyed it. If you look to do any tours, look up a lad called Sal (Sal Tours), he's local and very knowledgeable.

Yes going to Sal.

This will be our 3rd visit to Sal. We did a full island tour last time, as you know not really lots to see though wouldn't mind quad bikes. Will have a look if your recommendation does them.

We have done boa vista, I think, 6 times before. Not much to see there either. For me it's a winter sun destination, shortish flight and good weather.

Back at work tomorrow, over 5 weeks since I was last there.

Dr's have given me a might be fit to work note subject to adjusted hours.

My line manager has said will ease me in, stay off teams, don't advertise I'm back for a few days.

Reckon my inbox will take me a week to organize.

[MadAmster]

Fit enough to ease back into work is good news. Chuffed for you.

[SithHappens]

Will be interesting to see how tomorrow goes. I have a new line manager, which isn't ideal given my circumstances, but noises today they feel I should be back to full time despite my fit note saying I might be fit to work subject to adjusted hours and that's date till the end September. I've found this week harder than I expected and am limping to the weekend, which I've told my outgoing line manager.

New line manager wants to discuss with me tomorrow.

[MadAmster]

If medical advice is to ease your way in, then that is exactly what you should do. In the unlikely case your new line manager is a qualified medical doctor, you should listen to him, however, as he almost certainly isn't, I'd follow the medical advice you've been given. If the newbie decides that's a sacking offence, you've got a great case for an unlawful dismissal suit.

Chat went ok. Think it was me being too sensitive and misreading things.

[MadAmster]

Good news.

Unsurprising after recent events!

Ugh fed up of hospitals. Had to get ambulance out to my mum last night and was in A and E from 7pm till about 8am, now in surgical assessment unit with her.

'it never rains and all that'
Hope she recovers soon.
