We paid £100 deposit on 17/01/10 for new corsa,but our funds were not ready in time, phoned next day to request it back….its now the 27/02/10 and have been LIED to 4 times by David Smith and senior manager who promised us it would be sent out. At the end off my teather. Will not be going back to sighthill in edinburgh ever again.. Be warned, never pay a deposit.

Most ministers, as in David's case, do not stay more than 7 years.There is often no single reason why a minister may not exceptionally stay for more than 7, but a combination of factors makes it time for a change. How does Mr Stevenson know he was not given reasons – if you remember on David on camera said that he doubted whether he would be invited to stay on. In many walks of life people while working for the same employer move about. There's nothing illegal about that. How does Mr Stevenson know that the vote did not represent the majority wish?

I'm not sure why people are posting about employment laws since David Easton wasn't dismissed, he was merely transferred, as is the case for many Methodist ministers each year, not to mention all manner of employees in many industries. It's not against the law.

As other posters have said, Methodist ministry is intended to be itinerant and he had been in post for many years. So no "explanation" needed – as a Methodist minister he would be aware of how the system works. BTW I am no Methodist and have no axe to grind, I just decided to educate myself about how it works.

Comment on How Many Ford Mechanics Does It Take To Change a Focus Headlight? by Ben

It's interesting this post is still going strong! I have to say thanks to this post I restored my doomed male ego…I mean come on, I'm a male engineer and cannot replace a lamp! Even my gf was sneering at me! Anyway rather than admit defeat I was going to the removing battery + tray route in the hope of getting better access to the darn thing. Problem 1: need a socket extension to access bolts. Problem 2 – better use a memory keeper to avoid having problems with ECU. So this evening after work I popped into Halfords and was discussing what would be a good socket set with one of the staff…a set which would allow me to do jobs such as replacing Focus headlamp. One word leads to another, and 5min later I find myself standing outside hugging a 50 quid socket set next to a very dexterous young chap who in 5min did what I couldn't manage in one hour. No bolts undone, he even didn't bother looking…he did it all by touch!!!! Frustrating, but hey, that means I have one hour extra time for myself this weekend! As for the socket set…I prefer to think that I will use it one day.

Btw, the Halfords is the one in Solihull Retail Park, and I completely recommend them, at least to replace Focus headlights for cheap!

MAYBE IT IS THE SYSTEM BUT THERE IS THE COMMOM COURTESY OF BEING TOLD WHY THIS DECISION WAS TAKEN. DAVID IS ENTITLED TO AN EXPLANATION, WHAT DID HE DO THAT UPSET THE POWERFUL MINORITY. THE SYSTEM IS STILL CONTRARY TO THE LAW.

and i was talking slowly, he could not hear me and kept on saying hello..hellooo..heloooo inbetween our conversation… I stopped my car, took up the handset and called him again. Now he can hear me well. I told him its fine with me if it takes two weeks but it was not good of him to hang the phone on me like that. Is this how they treat their customers? He replies, so what do you want to do now? Instead of apologising, he is asking me what i want to do? I told him i will have to complain to your manager and he goes, i own the practice!!!! No Manners of doing a business at all.
If a manager behaves like this i wonder how the other staff would be at Alexander Heights? I have spent $160 on my mothers glasses and now will have to spend further posting the frames to her destination.
Insted of apologising and admitting their mistake, manager is asking me on what i want to do?
Is this the kind of customer service are we going to receive from SpecSavers?
OHH i forgot to mention that because of managers unfairness, i was so angrey that i forgot that i am overspeeding and i got fined $150

He called me back at last when i was driving. I was on bluetooth when he called so had to shout a bit to make sure that he can hear me well. He told me that while selling the glasses, he told me it would take TWO weeks…Surprise… One week became Two weeks… I tried to argue with him and he hanged phone on me saying i am shouting… I called him back and tried to argue with him and he hanged the phone again…I called him back and started talking slowly. Because i was driving,
