This is a question Expensive Weekends

Chthonic says he's still reeling from a trip to a wedding that cost him nearly £600; while a friend of ours hazily presented his credit card to the bar staff in a shady club in the Baltic states. You know how that one ended.

Last weekend
Went to the first rave of the year. Didn't sleep for the second weekend running. Ended up so run down that although I managed to make it in to work on Monday, I slept through my alarm on Tuesday.

Despite this being the first time this has happened since I got the job in September. Was given a weeks notice. Marching orders.

Cost of weekend/ trying to avoid missing a days wage = £60 + £1070 a month

Seems a harsh punishment
Surely being late is worth a less formal punishment than the fucking sack!

*Edit* although I can imagine that if you still make work on the Monday you must've contributed exactly zero to your employers cause.

Surely
They have to stick to formal procedure, did you have a verbal warning etc. If you're still on a probation period then fair enough, but by law they have to give you warnings etc. If you went to citizens advice they would have a field day man
