Lee Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 Here's an intriguing facebook group thats popped up https://www.facebook.com/groups/916046168442901/ I quote the description of the group Description I am a very concerned wife of a Timpson Employee, who I feel is being unfairly treated by middle management and would like to hear from past or present employees or their friends & family who have in the past or are currently experiencing similar issues.For example, have you been forced out of the company by being moved to a shop that is too far from where you live and had no choice but to leave? Have you applied for numerous job applications and never been promoted? Or any other reason?This is by NO MEANS a slanderous exercise towards the company and is NOT aimed directly at any Timpson employees. I just want to hear from others who feel that they need answers and may wish to take it further and find out why they are being discriminated against.As a former employee of a very large newspaper group I'm sure my contacts would be very interested in a story such as this, especially with the evidence I already have and if there are strength and numbers. So I am asking you to like/share/tag people in this group...... make it go viral...... so that other Timpson employees have an opportunity to join and have their say. Stand up and have your say..... let your voice be heard!!Should you wish to remain anonymous then please send a private message. Group Type Group Type Support I wonder how long it will survive on Facebook...... Could be Interesting all the same. Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Muppet Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 Haha. She's obviously annoyed that he's on a crap wage and trying to get him promoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Posted November 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 I found it entertaining but wouldn't join it. I've never worked for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike at Vauxhall Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 I'd have thought it would be fairly easy to get promoted in such a large company. Maybe he should become self employed. I promoted myself to supreme overlord/demi god of my shop only last week, just waiting for a new name badge.

Count Muppet Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 I feel sorry for the guy. It's obvious that he's not as good as he thinks he is and his wife is emasculating him in front of his friends and the public hoping to find a decent excuse as to why he isn't considered to be good enough for the next step up. After doing some digging and working out who he is I've noticed that he is one of those on Twitter who will post anything to get James's attention. Sad really, he should just let his quality of work and shop management do the talking. mrkeys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrkeys Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 Maybe hes just crap at his job or his work colleagues are simply better than him and more suited to these promotions she harps on about - that would be my guess As much as we all like to Timpson bash I've always known them to be very fair from the point of view of promoting from within, if you're good enough you will progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
