Sacked ???

i have been working in a pub for the past year and a half as a lounge girl I am now 18 and it was a handy job because Im in my second year in university and badly need the money.

the girls that work there didnt have to do an interview just go down and talk to one of the bar managers. but for me the bar manager is my cousin so she asked me one night did i want a job and i said yeah.. so i was now working for family which i now regret. no one in the pub knew not even the main managers

anyways lately my family and her family havent been getting on too well and her mam and my mam had an argument and ever since that i have had no hours. i keep ringing up and asking but she keeps making excuses. i havent done anything wrong on her. she told the main manager lies that i wasn't bothered working last week, but i had told her i had exams


in that job.. i can be replaced in no time. we get treated like **** but i putted up with it because i need the money. i don't know what to do the manager is sticking by my cousin.. i cant say were related cause that would just make things worse

i know im sacked because thats how to get rid of all the other girls that are now gone . they basically dont give girls any work and eventually the girls stop trying but they were 16 and not bothered if they lost their job but i NEED this job


my cousin has never sacked anyone face to face, she just ignores the people she wants to get rid of

need some advice on what to do ..

Why dont you speak face to face with the manager of the pub? What have you got to lose by telling him the family situation? Ask him if he will give you at least one shift per week and you will deal directly with him.

If I were you I would go to the manager quietly and ask to speak to him one to one, when your cousin isnt there. Just explain everything you've said here, and tell him how its completely unfair the way you are being treated simply because of a family disagreement that has or at least should have no bearing on you working there.
