00:00I'm eight months pregnant, I've got serious problems with my pelvis, and you want me to go back and lift suitcases?
00:05We need you back in the depo. I can't.
00:07I'm just recording this because I'm in disbelief that you would even say such things to me.
00:12I asked you to put me in the office for a few months and you said no, and I got worse and worse and worse because of all the manual work and lifting.
00:17You got bored in the depo and you just wanted to take maternity leave?
00:20No, I was doing heavy lifting. You just don't want to work, do you?
00:23Of course I want to work, but I'm entitled to time off.
00:27When are you planning on coming back to work then?
00:29When I've had a baby after nine months.
00:31Make sure you do because you need to come back and get your maternity pay, don't you?
00:35You'll have it all rejected.
00:36You want me back at work to lift up suitcases when I've got a bad pelvis, a bad back,
00:41I'm about to go into labor any moment because my baby could come early but I'm so big.
00:45I'll tell you what we'll do for you. We'll give you a nice cushion.
00:47I need you there, it's Christmas. We've got packages and packages to send out to places.
00:52Do you want to be responsible for children not getting Christmas presents on Christmas Day?
00:55He's trying to manipulate her into a job she's not fit to do.
00:59Do you? I need you.
01:01You can't manipulate me into coming back to a job that I'm not fit enough to go into.
01:07But some of the people we've got there now, they're fit and able-bodied but you can do all of their work in half time.
01:14I need those packages.
01:16So maybe like rethink your recruitment agency because-
01:18But what's it going to take? What is it going to take? I need, I need to have you back.
01:22I'll tell you what it's going to take. I'll tell you what it's going to take, Mike.
01:24It's going to take for me to have a baby next month.
01:27Sorry, it's a no. Let me tell you out for a drink. No. No. No.
01:30Is he trying to hit on her?
01:33If one more person offers me a J2O, I'll go bonkers too.
01:37He really was not getting the message.
01:39Listen, please.
01:40Like, it's a no. You're not coming in.
01:42What's it going to take? I need you to come back.
01:44It's not going to take anything, Mike. I told you like 17 times that I'm not coming back.
01:48Let me tell you something. Do you know in six months' time when you've had your baby and you're bored inside the house
01:53and nobody's coming around to see you because all the novelty's worn off, you're not going to have a job to come back to, are you?
01:57Wow. I will have a job and I'm not coming back in six months either. I'll come back when my mat leave is up.
02:03Well, all right. Then you come back in nine months then.
02:05Yeah.
02:0612 months.
02:07Yeah.
02:08What are you going to do for money? Because after three months, you don't get much, do you?
02:10I have mat leave.
02:11Mat leave paid.
02:12You're not going to have a job when you get back.
02:14I will have a job when I get back.
02:15You're not?
02:16I'll just get you done for unfair dismissal.
02:18What unfair dismissal?
02:19I know my rights, Mike.
02:20We'll just make it redundant.
02:21We'll make you redundant.
02:22What he was trying to do was very illegal.
02:25Well, how long have you been there now? Two years?
02:27Two? Are you taking the mic? I've been there eight years, Mike.
02:29Eight years?
02:30Yeah, eight years. I'll get a pretty good package for that, actually.
02:33Might be able to pay for my first two years of nursery.
02:35Let me tell you something, Claire. You are not going to have a job when you get back.
02:38All right then, well guess what? You are not going to have a job either because this is all on camera.
02:42I don't get it.
02:43I need you back at work.
02:45You are not going to come back with that attitude.
02:47I need you. Please, just come back to work.
02:49I am not going to work with someone who doesn't value me as a human being.
02:53Sorry.
02:54Wait, wait, wait.
02:56You are not going to be on camera.
02:58He will not be taking advantage of her any time soon.
