coming back due to the unnecessary stress regarding my annual leave request. This holiday request saga made it extremely clear to me that I definitely needed that week of holiday in Belgium, far away from the employment troubles I was experiencing in Gibraltar. A week with family and friends would definitely help me to take some mental distance from the ordeal I was suffering. This holiday was highly needed to help me clear my mind and mitigate some of the mental health issues I was enduring. I was now more or less convinced that they wanted me out of that company. Having had the time to think about it in Belgium, I would have most probably come to the conclusion that the best option for me was to resign from the company. But at that date I was still employed by the company and I was not able to use the full capacity of my brain anymore because of my mental health issues. This was not helped by the impression that nobody was really interested in my ordeal or was actually listening to what I had to say. 239. My reply to Danielle Wood's email (CC Emma Horwood): Hi Danielle, I strongly disagree with that way of presenting the issue of the annual leave. I was asked to book my annual leave closer to those dates. As you are well aware there is a formal complaint for continuous bullying going on from almost the first day I started working on 15.05.2017. This eventually made me seriously sick so I couldn't request the holiday anymore via the intranet. I am still awaiting a result of the investigation of my first complaints about 10 months ago. I recently asked during the investigation to be moved to another team and you agreed in writing that could be a temporary solution. As such I don't even know whom I should have asked for the annual leave anymore. It is shocking that I now have to find out that Susana, the person who is bullying me and used refusal of annual leave before to victimise me, is now again asked to decide my annual leave. Apart of that it is not my fault that over the last 2 years everyone in my team left the team and/or the company showing a serious issue is affecting the team. That the team is now understaffed is something I am very well aware of but I cannot be punished for that. During the days I asked for leave there is a presence of 2 team members (according to the roster from 21.04.2018) what is more than sufficient to cover the live chat and phone service from 12:00 till 20:00. It is even quite common that only 1 person covers such a period like e.g. only yesterday 22.04.2018 Kieran sat entirely alone for that shift. It feels like my annual leave request is now being used to punish me for me considering going to |
