Posted by Impossible-Fox4995@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 15 comments
hello!!! i recently posted on here about my pub job; whilst i do hopefully (have another job lined up) - i couldnt go in today as i have sciatica, and that i was unable to do the cleaning for them this morning as ive been bed bound basically the whole weekend, and they've just messaged me on a whim saying
'my daughters lost her keys, do you mind collecting your wages and dropping the keys off so she can lend them for a few days?'
i have a strooong feeling that they're gonna block me. ill update in roughly 20 mins once my partner has dropped the keys off lol

If they just block you, that's really bad for a company to do that. They may just be seeing if your ‘faking’ and will suddenly be well enough to collect wages.. But it does sound odd!! Did you have a contract? Or working cash in hand??

She's said previously it's cash in hand

Whats the verdict?

They could also be asking you to drop the keys off and collect your wages to see what your answer is.
Can’t come into work due to sciatica.
Will come in to collect wages.
Have a think before you reply. Best of luck 😊

Agreed 👍

Why are you cleaning pubs if you have back problems? It's not going to help.

Many people aren’t lucky enough to choose their exact type of employment

Eh because sometimes life gives us no other options.

It is now 33 minutes later and there is no update...how am I going to get my sunday night fix of drama now that Heartbeat isn't on anymore.

Pregabalin was a bloody life saver for me for nerve pain. If the sciatica doesnt settle get to the drs for meds.

Sounds like it, but good luck and waiting for an update!
