I have been suspended from work today.

Well according to my wife, the person she handed my resignation letter to (Personnel clerk) was being rather abrupt with her yesterday. Ignoring her, not saying much and when she did it was with a face on and one word answers etc. very out of character. The clerk was fine before wife handed the letter. Later that day the clerk came up to her and hugged my wife and apologised for being a ****. She said she should not have taken it out on my wife.

The only thing we can think off is she was mentioned in my resignation letter. She was interviewed for a statement, not mentioned once in the video or anything like that. The statement was pointless to the investigation as all she said was that she saw it and described a few parts of it. I never once denied I uploaded the video so her statement was irrelevant.

Anyway, apparently the senior management are a bit rattled by the resignation letter as if it went further I was advised to (dependent on out come) file for sex discrimination. I have evidence to back up my claim and my adviser told me the whole investigation was biased and one sided.

When you see the statements from the investigation and other bits of evidence and my letters, which were not used now :( you would see why. The whole thing from my first meeting was handled very poor.

All my correspondence and what to say and do was under advice from a very successful HR Adviser who has far more experience than the people handling my crock or ****.

When I took redundancy July 2015, 3 normal department managers took the step up to Duty manager. Two of which (one was on nights) handled my disciplinary. The HR manager has only been doing it for 4 years iirc, after being Cafe manager. So very little experience between them and my adviser told me this investigation is basically a case of learning from your mistakes.

My grievance is going ahead still about senior management discussing it in public.
 
I can see where you're coming from but assure I am not trying to play the victim. I am over it, to be honest I was over it once I got in touch with my adviser. The problem is, my wife. She is getting stressed over the whole thing. People coming up to her asking about me, it etc it's got nothing to do with her, yeah we are married but thats it. At work we have nothing to do with each other.

She wants out of there to after all this. She is going to the doctors tomorrow to see what they can do for her. She does have some underlining issues which I will not discuss here but this thing over the last two weeks has dramatically made things worse for her.

I guess you could say she is the innocent victim in all this. People staring at her, talking about her (which we know is true) all stemming from my investigation/disciplinary. She breaks down in tears because of this whilst at work. It's not a nice situation to be in and that place currently is not the best place to be for most people.
 
***PLOT TWIST***

In June 2015 I was made redundant from my Managers position of the Meat and Fish departments. Come 6 months later I was asked if I wanted to go back as a Butcher. I took that job and loved it. Fast forward to the Hitler video and this thread. I still have people I talk to that work there and keep upto date with things going on there too. I know the management have all pretty much left that where there at the time of my resignation plus most of the staff in the video have left too. the 'Cream guy' is still there, the real butthurt one.

Anyway, my old, old job is available. The fish managers job. I have been told to apply by the HR lady who sort of stood by me but still had to say what she saw and heard etc. so no hard feelings there plus its been a few years now. Anyway, I applied for it and my CV is in the hands of the Store personal department. Just waiting to hear from them if they fancy giving me an interview.

Some of you will probably say it's a bad idea but to be fair it's about the money now with me as my wife is hopefully starting uni later this year plus we have a 1 year old boy who will need more child care paying for.

On a side note I still have all the documents saved from the investigation if anyone fancies a laugh. Unfortunately I don't have the video anymore.
