    Hi, I approached the director of the company iv been working for (3yrs) to give notice of my intention to move on, without going in to the full details I was subjected to a barrage of abusive words/allegations & told to #### off before I'd got more than 20 seconds into my sentence. I chose to remain silent & simply left, iv since been informed by a now ex colleague the announcement was made iv left!!
    Where do I stand legally as iv been dismissed for trying to hand in my notice, is that allowed? As a contractor do I have any rights here?
    None - tell them to fook off and move on.

    You say you're a contractor but you seem to want employee protection like a permie!

    You've been terminated. No work, no pay. Move on.
