A curious one! Help please and a bit of guidance appreciated.

My daughter who passed out from Hendon at the end of July 12 has been trying to get her first shift organised with her station.

Firstly, all the other people that passed out within the group, met their Station Sergeant before the course was completed.

My daughter never. She has tried contacting various people and been given the run around. She e-mailed her Sergeant on one occasion and was told off for calling him by his wrong title (used name rather than Sergeant).

She went to the station, completed her expense claim (still unpaid),did some N Calts, took her uniform up to the station and organised a locker. Then nothing, until yesterday.

Yesterday - call from an officer who deals with specials. He said that as she had made no effort to arrange a shift, that she should attend the station, hand over her warrant card and resign!!!!

He also suggested to come back in 6 - 8 months time, when she would be welcomed back. When she said that she has tried on 'numerous' occasions to arrange a shift with a contact that had been given to her by Hendon, he said "so are you trying to blame one of my officers?"

Has anyone ever come across this before and what should she do?
