@garryweston1@POAnatchair I now have to wait for my line manager to chase it up and prove the paperwork got sent off back in Jan, then it’s about her call back to capita. The whole thing is a complete joke but we expect it from hmpps.
@POAnatchair@garryweston1 Latest update, contacted capita told employed hadn’t submitted a form from 8 months ago so can’t process pension claim, then received email saying they were processed claim, so no idea what the hell us going on, only 3 mths into partial retirement!! Can’t make this shit up!!!
@POAnatchair@garryweston1 Last email I got was 4 months ago saying I’ll be updated weekly on what’s happening, 3 months into partial retirement and 7 months after applying I still have no idea when or what I’ll be getting for a pension. Absolute joke!!!
Well day 1 of being partially retired from hmpps, not at work so it’s a good day, no idea when I’ll get my figures for pension but just being part time is a joy!!!
@John_Podmore We have to many coming from probation who have no concept of what the job entails and telling staff with 20yrs in how to do the job and bringing in their own agenda.
@BrummyBoy13@AWilsonmhealth Shame we can’t say or do that now, to many of the woke brigade and to many managers looking to make a name for themselves by screwing staff over.
@BrummyBoy13@AWilsonmhealth I’ve tried that, even had 1 say“ you can’t tell me anything I’ve had 6 weeks training, your just a dinosaur that doesn’t like change” I walked away then and thought screw it im getting out.
@BrummyBoy13@AWilsonmhealth You can’t buy that kind of experience and we both know most of the new staff don’t want to learn from us experienced staff.
@BrummyBoy13@AWilsonmhealth Joined at 36, after 10 yrs as a retained firefighter and 18yrs in multiple factory jobs, gained experience as a team leader and leading hand firefighter, set a minimum age to join of 25 and NO ONE straight from collage/uni. That would be a start.
Well that’s the partial retirement paperwork sent and confirmed with a date of 1st May. Not holding my breath it’ll be sorted by then but it’s a start to get out of HMPPS!!
@SexOffenderX@Prison_Screw Must hails are in some form of lock down/ restricted regime on a daily basis due to not having enough staff in post and the chronic exodus of staff.
