Is there still Rule of Law in Gibraltar?                          Is there corruption in the local police?

             Are employees' Human Rights protected?                          Is there a mafia in Gibraltar?

                        How corrupt are the Courts in Gibraltar?                                        Is Entain a bad employer?

face reading the minutes and reliving the miserable events at work at that moment in time. I knew it had to be done and could not be put off indefinitely so on the 4th February 2018 I mustered up enough courage to read, digest and reply to Danielle Wood's email with the draft minutes.

100. The email I sent to Danielle Wood:
Hi Danielle,
I had to call in sick on Thursday and Friday and apart of that I'm off till Wednesday. For that I answer you on Sunday evening from home.
One thing I forgot and that was brought up again during the team meeting by Hamid and Jose Luis is their claim that during my probation time I was not following their advice and that I did do that to make them look bad. Something that definitely did not happen as such, I asked Yousri later in a quiet moment and he replied that indeed in 3 months I had asked for a second opinion 3 or 4 times. I did ask for a second opinion because I was convinced that the information given was incorrect and that was also confirmed by the person who gave the second opinion (mostly shift supervisor or team leader). I did this to do my job as professionally as possible and definitely not to make my colleagues feel bad. Yousri and his little club have gone around though for months that I did that constantly and on purpose and it caused me remarks from Susana and Samira. It's just another example of how they were trying to terrorise me on the job.
As latest evolutions I can add that Stef leaves the team on 05.03.2018 and goes to traders. Dennis had a second job interview with an IT company in Marbella. I am not planning to leave but feel very demotivated to have to go working in such a terribly bad atmosphere.
Thanks and kind regards,
Bart


101. I continued to feel very depressed and the fear grew in my mind that I might be close to the end of my employment with GVC/bwin. Whatever was happening could definitely not be positive for any career posibilities I had worked so hard for and under such tremendous stress because of the bullying. Returning to my job in customer service became something I now dreaded enormously as I had seen the denigrating and humiliating way Susana
