Don't
Complete Something Called The "Dartmoor Devil Endurance Event" If
Claiming You Were Too Ill To Answer Your Bosses Phone Calls For 92 Days
Saying attempts to reach you was
a "campaign of bullying" will not get your job back either
A
UK IT worker, Andrew Hamlyn, 54, who claimed his severe lung
infection made him too sick to answer his bosses phone calls and emails
for 92 days, and who was photographed completing the 66 mile
bike
challenge called the "Dartmoor Devil Endurance Event," 21 days into his
"illness", claimed unfair dismissal in court.
He claimed,
- his
doctor told him to do it to help his recovery,
- attempts
by his bosses to see if he was OK was a "campaign of bullying," and that
- his
fear that he was going to be fired on the first sick day led him to do
this. You think?
The
judge didn't buy what he was peddling.
