297. That Friday 4th May 2018 I was not supposed to work according to the latest shift roster I had received. The two following days, Saturday and Sunday, I was on the shift roster from 12h00 till 20h00. The further proof of sabotaging of my appeal process by HR made that I continued to feel very depressed and had no courage at all to return to work. I was heavily convinced that returning would result in another mental breakdown and I genuinely feared that it would be worse than the ones I had endured before. I therefore was unable to go to work and simply stayed at home. The amounts of alcohol I consumed to be able to sleep had gone up again and I just waited for the world to stop turning and end my suffering. 298. On 7th May 2018 at 12h37 I sent an email to Cecilia Malmgren at HR, well before the deadline that was that day at close of business day.

I entered my appeal against the bullying investigation, and the next thing was that I got sacked. No goodwill, no empathy, no understanding or acceptance of my mental health problems, just a cold blooded dismissal to get rid of the problem that I apparently had become after being bullied for just under a year.

There was no doubt in my mind that they had it all nicely calculated and worked out to get rid of me in the way that would most harm my legal rights and future chances of finding another job in Gibraltar. They just hoped I would go away and never return so their mistakes, professional negligence, and intentional cover ups would be hidden forever. Exactly as what had happened with Dennis Dorland, who returned to The Netherlands after being bullied out of the company. 299. My email to Cecilia Malmgren: Dear Cecilia, As already earlier mentioned to Danielle and Emma I wish to appeal against the outcome of the bullying investigation based on the multitude of complaints I have been writing since 24 July last year. On 31 January this year I had a first meeting with HR (Danielle) regarding the atmosphere in the Dutch/Belgian team in which I elaborated on the bullying |
