Well, I put in for a job that was advertised at work to do a 7month secondment short notice from next month until December at the fire service training college Morton in Mash. I found out about it on 15/5/07 when I went back in work after having 26 days off. The closing date for the app is today 18/5/07 and I did everything poss to get all my stuff sorted and inform my line managers etc about it. They then said fine you can apply.
Last night when I was back in work, I was passed an email that had been sent to my watch officer which said that because some one in the management team felt that they wanted a higher rank than me to apply for the job that I could not apply! ( its not mentioned anywhere that what rank is needed ) This annoyed me big time, so this morn I have been a man on a mission trying my best to get hold of anyone and everyone that could poss no anything about it to prove them wrong.
But now it seems I have come to a dead end, so I'm off back into work now to do some more ringing around etc and hope I can get in to contact with some one.
Really had to get it off my chest. In fact I can see myself not having a job after today if I do find out I could have applied and because of some fool I dont even get the opp to go for it or its to late after all the running about.
Anway wish me luck:rolleyes:
