Just in case you were wondering.
Pedantic Moment coming up:

He's right with embolisms.
Emboli is the plural of embolus [the actual blockage]
An Embolism is the event, plural embolisms

I once had to do 2000 words on that subject as punishment for a late homework.
No internet then it was down the library for a few volumes of encyclopedia.
Try finding 2000 words without repeating yourself.

See how useful it was, tucked away for 25 years for a moment just like this one

The boss asked me to pop in and the long and short of it is I have lost my job. I estimate and deal with clients as well as running the work and invoicing etc. Because I have not been able to go into work fulltime he has pulled in the foreman into my role. I have to hand the ute and my mobile in tomorrow.
I am not unemployed technically as I have been given the option of working on the shop floor. The drawback with this is that I am months away from being able to do a physically demanding job as things stand now, never mind if other issues arise from the current scans etc I am having.
Also, as I live on the Southside and work on the Northside and no longer have transport, I am stuffed anyway.
I have no sick pay left and no accrued leave left.

Does anyone have any idea about the centrelink situation in a case like this?
I urge you to go and see Miles at The Employment Advisor: http://www.employmentadvisor.com.au/home.htm

A friend of mine was made redundant while on sick leave, we sent her to Miles and she was awarded $50k out of court for wrongful dismissal. She didn't even realise she was entitled to anything. He also helped me get out of a tricky situation with this same company (very powerful organisation and I was sh*tting myself!).

Very sorry to hear about your situation but if anyone can help, he can. Hope things improve for you soon

Thanks Rabs, I have emailed them with a brief description of the situation. No doubt they will be in touch! x
