    I often wonder what tax Uber/Hermes contractors/employees pay, and if they would be happy to suddenly start paying full PAYE if they are officially recognised as employees.
    There have been tribunal cases that have proved some self-employed people for companies like that are workers so entitled to benefits like statutory sick pay.

      OP needs to MTFU, dust him/herself off, find a new gig and keep quiet.

        I'd take a guess from the OP's name instead of MTFU then need to WTFU. Maybe WTFH can mediate for us.

          I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

              Crap! Seems like I missed the fun! Reading comments from the OP (my work was excellent blah, blah, blah) gives all the clues you need to understand why they were jettisoned not once, but twice. And it's going to be a third time if he \ she doesnt modify their behaviour.

              I also get the impression the OP has a disdain for younger bosses which probably comes across in their attitude at work.

                Hmmm. There are some real bellends out there who would do this sort of thing. I've met one once in a contract and it was just unbelievable...

                But twice. Could be bad luck but who knows.

                OP - Are you sure you're not winding people up? As I always say, getting on with people, especially the permies is more often than not more important than anything else.

                  Is it twice out of two contracts or twice out of many contracts? It's perfectly possible to meet two such bellends in this industry.

                      On reflection OP needs to MTFU/WTFU and STFU at next gig.
