We don't have a Waitsore near us, so we either use Sainsbury's or Waitrose.

What's wrong with Hotmail? I've still got the same email address that I created over 30 years ago. My first name then three numbers @hotmail.com. It's the only one I've ever had.
Ditto, although I run with 2 email addresses. The hotmail one I’ve had since forever + the one I use when giving it to businesses, e.g. the bank etc.

Trust me, those train driver "manuals " are not as bad as they look. Majority of the stuff you never use

How hard can it be? How to make it go, how to make it stop - not like you need to worry about steering or anything

One of my older colleagues turns 66 next month, still fit as a fiddle and a decent engineer. Apparently our manager has told him they want him to retire next month, this is despite him having already agreed he would work past retirement age.

Can they make him retire?One of my older colleagues turns 66 next month, still fit as a fiddle and a decent engineer. Apparently our manager has told him they want him to retire next month, this is despite him having already agreed he would work past retirement age.

I understood it was the employees choice and all the employer can do is make them redundant, which Insuspect will cost them a lot more than he retiring.

That’s our understanding, they can only force him to retire for physical or mental reasons.

Or just make him redundant if they want to?

Agreed, it’s all very strange specially given they set on a couple of engineers last Autumn who don’t seem to be up to the task
