Hej
Erik!

Nice to hear from you. How are you? Still in Liverpool?
I moved back to Finland and now doing my masters in Helsinki.

What
is this case you have against Arvato? They are evil, so well done. I
really hope you win!

Hi
Katri,

thank you very much for your answer!

I'm still
in Liverpool, I've been working as a company researches, taking calls
to Scandinavian companies from home, since I was constructivly
dismissed, from Arvato.

I'm complaining about the bullying,
from team-leader Vivian Steinsland, and the shouting 'name, you're on
wrap-up', that I was given to few rest-days, that team-leader Baines,
Bon Prix, followed me home.

That STL Tippins, lied in a
meeting, and that Rushby, HR and Tippins, tried to cover up for
Baines, in a meeting.

And much more.

I'll find a link
to this if you're interested.

I thought that maybe some of the
Nordic women working at Arvato were in problems.

I remember
hearing you say, to team-leader Line, that you didn't dear to bring
your boyfriend to Helsinki, but only to Stockholm, in the Christmas
holyday, or what it was.

But it could be that I heard
wrong.

That's possible.

I've also been a bit worried
for the other girls there, like Emelie, who was missing from work,
for months, even if she worked there full-time, and Anna Riski, who
started crying there, and also Marianne Hoeksas, started crying
there.

But anyway.

I remember that you got a bit
shouted at, when you were taking the Finnish calls, and rejecting the
customers to activate Windows, that you were just sitting there, and
taking the abuse, in stead of hanging up.

But then they would
have maybe complained, but maybe the team-leaders should have helped
you.

I'll add the links, so please tell me if there is
something you know about the problems there, or with the girls
working there.

Thanks again for your answer, and good luck
with your masters!

Erik

Thanks
for the links.

I really hope you come out as winner in this
thing. My ex-boyfriend(we broke up) worked for arvato and ian was his
boss. It was horrible seeing how they treated him.
Is it costing
you a lot to do this? Do you have an attorney? What are the chances
of winning? After coming to Finland I realized that in England the
worker is without rights and pay is really bad. I now work for a
financing company and the law is always on the workers side, and pay
is double to that in england. But then again the nordic countries are
ahead so much.

By
the way, send messages to Judith and Karoliina. They are on my
friends list. I'm sure Judith would like to hear from you.

Hi,

I
try to get founding from legal aid, which is free, if you get help
from the law-firm.

But I haven't got any agreements with
law-frims on this yet, but I haven't given up.

I've also been
in contact with the Norwegian embassy, in London, who are supporsed
to call me again now.

The police weren't interested to help,
so they sent me to the Citizens Advice Bureau.

But both the
police and the CAB, have been bulying me, since I think it really is
a criminal-case as well, and not only an employment-case, because I
was bullied almost to death there, or how I shoud explain it.

So
it has taken me a lot of time, but not money, but time I could have
used at work, but at least I've got it published on the
publising-site.

I've been discusing the problems there, on the
BBC message-board etc., and got told, that Arvato used illigal
managment methods etc, that were bullying. (The shouting, you're on
wrap-up etc).

I contacted Christine Hansen, the other day, she
said it was like being in prison working there, and I think it got
worse, after people like Vivian Steinsland became team-leader, and
also after Ian Carrel became Managing Director.

(From around
the summer of 2006, it got a lot worse working for MSPA, I'd say).

I
had a meeting with Carrel, but he put Rushby, from HR, in charge of
the investigation of the problems I'd reported, even if I had
complained about her, in the e-mail to Carrel, that she was involved
in the covering up, of the harassment from Baines.

I told the
Police this, and they said that the CAB was 'government', which they
aren't, they are a charity.

But it seemed to me, that the
Police etc., could be involved in this.

And that this could be
why there are problems like these in Britain.

I think people
are protected, by laws etc., but that the system with the police, and
the CAB and the Law Society and the LSC and the law-firms etc, is
corrupt.

That's how it could seem to me.

I'll see if I
contact Judith and Katariina.

I had some problems with Judith
there, but maybe I can bring them up.

We'll see.

Now
I'm trying to find new employment, since the project I've been
working on since I had to quit at Arvato, has ended, but I'm going to
try to deal with the case anyway.

I'm waiting for Arvato to
send me my file there now, that I was adviced by a law firm in
Wrexham, to ask them if they could do.

So I'll upload those
files when I recieve them.

If you have the time to look at the
files, and have any comments etc, then please just tell me.

I
remember once I was working an early shift, at Arvato.

Then I
went to Tesco, to buy food, and then you were in Matthew St., I think
it was, and then you took a taxi home, I seem to remember.

But
maybe the study-finance is good in Finland.

Not that it's my
business.

But if you want, I can update you, when I know more
about the case.
