James saw a job advertised for the post of Town Clerk for Lymington and Pennington Town Council, so he decided to apply, even though he didn’t match the posted experience required.
The advert stated 10 years experience, a Certificate in Local Council Administration and a relevant degree James has seven years experience, a certificate but no degree. Fair enough, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
He even phoned the retiring Town Clerk claiming it was unfair to ask for 10 years experience. The Clerk advised the council to reconsider the application, which they did, but James was not shortlisted.
Now, most reasonable people would have accepted the decision, but not James. He went to an Employment Tribunal, complaining that he was discriminated against due to his age (29), which made it difficult to have gained 10 years experience.
The Tribunal judge agreed that the other candidates were a better fit, but the Council had failed to demonstrate that 10 years experience was significantly different than, for example, 8 years, and awarded the winging, moaning cunt nearly £3k!
Make it make sense, someone.

I’m thinking of taking WC Boggs productions to tribunal after they advertised for a male performer who must boast ten inches in the trouser dept. I was rejected on account of the fact my instrument met the specified length, but I was told it did not meet the other criteria relevant to the role; now no where did the ad state that the extensive displacement of said member couldn’t just be the result of gravitational sagging NOR that I had to be able to get the bloody thing UP. I reckon that’s worth at least £10k.
10
I wrote that ad, BD.
If you study the small print more closely, you’ll discover that the criteria is that performers must be able to 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘦 ten inches.
Please report for filming duty tomorrow morning as agreed and prepare yourself for an industrial strength Lubbocking.

Fuck that’s not fair Thomas, I should be able to sue you for you not anticipating that I might be a thick lazy cunt (or perhaps you did). Oh well, in the meantime where’s the Swarfega and the boxing glove

Sadly, Dave, the lady whom you were meant to be performing with (the very lovely Analiese Dodds) demanded a man with a Prince Albert fitted. We were all very sad, Dave, believe me, not least Analiese, who had had a bath especially for the audition only five weeks earlier. Moreover, her “maid” Jess Phillips did say you only had nine and a half, and she is an expert.
As a consolation prize, we would be happy to send you a copy of The Best of Lesbian Frolics, which was our best seller at Xmas. This wonderful film includes bonus footage of wonderful Wes Streeting preparing for his debut performance at the Steaming Pussycat Drag Night last summer. Worth £45 on anyone’s money – yours free, and sent in a plain sealed brown envelope, Now can I say fairer than that?
11
Hmmmm, I’ve consulted my lawyers WC and they’ve countered with IF you throw in a pair of Angela Rayner’s heavily shitted in grundies AND a handful of Diane Abbott’s (unironed) gorilla salad we may be able to settle out of court. I’m sorry, but we cannot accept anything less, there’s some sort of principle at stake here although we’re all fucked if we can remember what it is, such is the fervent state of guilt-laden excitement in our camp
8
I’m a reasonable man, Dave, and I think we can settle out of court. As an extra gesture of goodwill, I will also throw in a pair of Kweer’s pink frilly knickers, with a generous gusset (heavily stained) – the ones he laid a brick in the day he sacked Mandy. Agreed?
8
Ok we have a deal, never let it be said that I’m a vexatious, petty, grifting, lazy, grasping cunt. Or I’ll sue you.
8
They should’ve given the moaning cunt a trial run for the job and told him he was inadequate for the position whether he was or not. Anything to deny the cheeky cunt the award money.
12
They should have just said he did not have the required education, simple as that, instead of concentrating on an irrelevance.
Lack of experience is not a disability, its a fact.
I am sure if he were to have been accepted and fucked up he would have used lack of said experience in his defence and sued them for more.
Its because of people like this I spend a lot of time putting stickers on things suggesting that they do not do the unthinkable.
any way 3k is fuck all
3
It is, Lord B, but as others have pointed out he’s royally fucked any chance of future employment with that Town Council at least, and for what?
4
£3k is a considerable amount per hour if you allow an hour for filling out the application, an hour for checking up on application then an hour for filling out tribunal forms.
Whats the odds he has started applying for other jobs beyond his ken now he knows he just needs to be rejected from the jobs to earn a less corrupt living than actually working for the council?

That’s all we are good at now in this country, grievance..
Turned down for a job, can’t be me.. it must be racism, sexism or ageism..
The problem nowadays, nobody likes being told no..
Somebody pointed out this week, that people don’t get punched in the face anymore..
That always curbed bad behaviour in my day..
I say bring that experience back..
Bagsy Rodney..
11
I would differ,
I recently had a chat with someone who started with “I am going to knock you out” and ended with “I am a minor”, despite the fact that when I was his age I was waving a fucking gun around, so perhaps delayed development is to blame.
or retardation caused by parents.
6
Surely he should be suing his parents for not conceiving him a couple years earlier in order for him to have the required number of years experience?
He should then sue himself for being a lazy cunt and not getting the degree the role requires.
13
Should he apply for a job requiring grievance mongering he can now claim he has the relevant experience.
10
There are three problems here.
1) the pathetic cunt who will now never be employed by any company with any sense.
2) the fucked legal system. Fucked by the idiots now operating.
3) public money is not safe in the hands of officials.
Make it stop
9
Now this has been made public, no employer with any sense will touch the cunt with a barge pole. I suppose he’s too thick to figure that out.
4
Yes and that most likely fuel even more claims , that and a life on the dole.
Can you honestly see crap like that signing up to Capt. Mainwaring’s platoon to fight for the old country?
2
He should have identified as a blik, pro-Plasticine, tranni, far-left, Muslim cat on the application form, he’d of got the job without question.
3
This is true,
I had a person apply for a job and checked their reference with a “Friendly” as you know, you cant give a bad reference, so they asked me to pop round for a chat.
The chat involved a list of company’s that said person had taken legal action against.
Application binned, no further contact.
Yep they fucked their life up
3
An unmarried expectant mother who is about to give birth had been in conversation with her protégé son, also thinks he’s adequate for the position.
4
Sounds like a spoilt mummy’s boy.
He’d be better suited to the role of Town Crier. Then he’d be paid to cry about not getting the Town Clerk’s job.
8
10 years experience in pushing paper clips, it’s an art form and no one should doubt that 10 years is absolute minimum to be a paper clips grand master.
8
I recall we had an old chap here, that was forced to retire as a PC mouse and Parkinson’s does not get on.
Any way he was a miserable old cunt who sat in the corner and seemed to do fuck all.
When he left, well shit did things go wrong, his ability to play with paper clips had been keeping them running smoothly.

That’s the one good thing about social media. When I’m reviewing CV’s and have drawn up a short list for interview (obviously instantly rejecting anyone with even a remote possibility of being a darkıe), I’m straight on social media to discover whether they like EV’s or might be a cyclist or any kind of activist.
The internet is forever and this young twat has utterly fucked over any chance of future employment, barring nepotism.
9
I’ve never posted on any social media except this one Thomas. I realised the wisdom of my unconscious decision when I overheard an HR goblin express bafflement that she couldn’t trace a former employee on Facebook or Linkdln.

Further reminiscence; I was once given the task of recruiting another field engineer. Amongst those I interviewed was a homosexual. I told him we didn’t employ preverts and sent him away. Cheeky bastard complained to our MD. MD phoned me to ask what was going on as the guy had the right knowledge and experience. When I explained I received a brief acknowledgement in a tone of realisation and understanding. The poof was dismissed and my career was unaffected. This was in the eighties. I imagine in later times I might have been in trouble.

Thomas,
as I explained to an exemployee once, I don’t give a fuck about your face book, I look at your mates face book and the pictures and stories they tell about you.

Yes my little toe rag, you were careful to sanitise your posts, but you forgot about your mates!

I was on Universal Credit for a short while waiting to get HGV sorted and find a decent job.
To qualify I had to prove I’d been ‘Actively Seeking Employment’ so to shut them up I’d apply for jobs with which I had absolutely no qualifications or experience and totally no hope of getting.
They were very happy with that and congratulated me on my keenness.

Just like in lots of disreputable countries, it is the system which makes honest people dishonest.
I suggest Major that you claim for compo as the state has corrupted you. (though in truth I Imagine that happened a very long time ago).

Well if the driving bit goes to shit, apply for a job in senior management were I work, I think you would fit the bill!

It’s a bit of an eye opener, this one.
The bar is set quite high for the role of a town clerk, yet someone like Dirty Ange can hold high office and potentially be in the running for next prime minister with absolutely no qualifications whatsoever.
That said, I’ve fuck all sympathy for this spoilt little cunt.
He’s probably just pissed off that he’s missed the chance to get some brown envelopes from property developers.
Let’s face it, that’s what most local council high ups get up to.

Surprised they haven’t written back yet.

Indeed, Mis.
Whenever I switch it on it’s curling. Bowls for people from countries with shit weather.
I also noticed the BBC have installed some sheboon to present some of it.
It must have been a culture shock for her.
The snow like substance she normally encounters is what her family members sell in little wraps.

O/T They have just arrested former Prince Andrews. How about they do the same with Mandy – he would like a nice butch policeman feeling his collar – and it wouldn’t have to stop there!:

I see there’s a new buzz phrase attached to every report this morning.
‘Andrew has consistently and strenuously denied any wrongdoing’
It’s strange how the same level of media caution doesn’t apply to any other white male who’s had his collar felt.
3
Just for show.
Cunt Starmer would have been told in advance about the arrest so expect a lot of news to get buried today.
Andrew won’t do any time.
Where would they put him?
In the general prison population where he would get beaten up every day, or on section 43 with all the other sex offenders?
He will be exiled to Abu Dhabi to live alongside our King Juan Carlos.
A right pair of cunts.

James should of just brazened it out like an cabinet minister. Swapping roles in reshuffles every few years, who cares if you have no experience in healthcare, the armed forces, prisons, schools or transport. As long as you are an Oxbridge cunt with a PPE degree and can fill out an expences form.
3
And can turn a blind eye to rent boys regularly emerging sheepishly from cabinet offices, followed moments later by the prime minister, who’s walking a bit ‘funny’.

Prince Edward must have been a little jelous of Andrew after being woken by a burley young police officer who put him in handcuffs.

However, how do you classify bulling? I once said to someone “Do your job” and got hauled in front of HR, I quickly dusted over their job description and duties, the fact that they were not doing them and we pay them to do them and asked what the problem was, apparently it was my tone.

Everyone that I have working for me are autónomo (self employed).
They get paid for what they do.
No way would I ever give someone a contract.
