Hi I'm looking for some advice.
I have handed in my notice at my livery yard. Reasons being I pay for full livery and the care has started to slip since the yard was put up for sale, he came in injured the other day with a wound that was at least 24 hours old and no one had bothered to tell me (I was on nights the previous night so didn't get down to see him). They forget to make his breakfast up, he gets a hay-net no bigger than a football (I kid you not!) at night HE IS A 16.2HH TB! So most of the time when I go down I end up re-doing everything myself just to make sure my horse is fed and watered every day and has a clean stable.
So I handed in my notice, you have to give one month at my yard. However, I have offered to pay her my notice but I want to leave ASAP as my horse is dropping weight and I'm not being made aware of injuries, I basically can't trust the people there to look after my pride and joy and due to my shift patterns he needs to be on Full Livery and I need to be able to trust people to look after him properly if I ever can't get down for a day. She is making us serve the whole notice on that yard which I don't understand. Surely if she gets her money for the month it doesn't matter if a horse is in the stable or not?
I just want to know where I stand Please help...
