Hi,

A friend of mine has just informed me they have been sacked from their job at Specsavers this week. Before you ask...no this isn't me!

She has told me that she had a 3 month probation period with the company but they sacked her after working there 3 weeks without her having to work any notice, just to not come back.

The reasons were:

- Not professional at all
- Keep having to tell you what to do again and again

My understanding was that during a probationary period the company has the right to dismiss you if they wish without having to work notice. Is this correct?

Thanks
 
It gets worse... She wants to take them to court for unfair dismissal...

I'm really trying to convince against this because she will loose, she has no case and it will cost a fortune!
