How do you do diving work from home? Have you got a pond or something?

I spent a month on Garden leave on leaving last job.

I had that once. Kept the company car and petrol card for the month too.

Went on a trip around Scotland with it

They took the company laptop but left me with a company phone (had to post it back to them)

I was on garden leave from my permie job last year (defence industry). Sound I thought, 4 months leave, full pay then decent redundancy payment.

Only problem was ****ers invoked an agreement that I had to come in for 2 weeks to handover. Fair enough I said. Then they said it was up to PM if this went further than 2 weeks.

Of course, PM did his best to screw most he could and delay my leaving as long as possible for 'business reasons'. In the end, I went there for 6 weeks until I eventually kicked off with HR.

Still had some decent time though. Good news is started a contract about 2 weeks after my official leaving date!!!

So sassy gets sacked and tries to pretend its gardening leave.

I bet it was for gross misconduct. And the police were involved.

I shall keep an eye on the Guildford papers for the full SP.

I'm sitting under the shade of the apple tree in the garden having consumed a couple of beers. Nice. Trying to think through a thorny Maths problem. The beers aren't helping. This is the life though.
