Redundancy depending on age….

https://ibb.co/3Mxp5tK Why is redundancy determined partly by your age? Also, the 'per week' calculations will be determined by the 12 weeks prior to the end of March. We have had our hours cut down to practical nothing (I am currently on 1 1/2 hours a week from a full schedule. This has been like it since the new year) and we have just had 3 weeks of holiday (we are teaching online) with no hours at all.

Why must every job I get go the same way?

I seem to be stuck in an endless loop. I need a job to be able to live, then I get one, then I slowly start to lose my mind as I hate the work and my boss treats me like trash, I become more and more depressed, it starts to affect my work, I start making excuses to not go in, I lose my job, And now I need a job again. It is just so frustrating that I get forced into doing something that makes me miserable.

I'm good at the job and enjoy it, especially working from home, not losing 8 hours a week commuting and not having to pay to get to work. I love being able to cook myself a hot lunch and spend my break with my partner or catching up on some chores. The office manager, in order to justify her job is demanding that we all come into the office full time. I personally have no interest in doing so and made it clear to them that I wasn't going to. Of course they threatened my job and told me I'll will have to be in next week. I pushed back , booked some time off and said that I wouldn't be able to come in for…

From the top comments: It seems like a little but the actual train even the overhead gives him a decent margin. Not a jerk forward motion but FREE to take deep BREATHS.
