1 - To Friends, Foes, and Strangers

expret.org Former Pret A Manger Staff Speaks Out ·

2022/05/01

Upfront, sorry for the LOW VOLUME, this is the first episode I've done spontaneously, having had a cold and using an old phone. Apologies. The other episodes are louder and clearer. --- I didn't want to do a podcast, and don't really call this a podcast as such as I am more waffling along, but I've written a lot about my brother and then later about my former workplace Pret A Manger where I was bullied during bereavement. I write extensively on this and other issues on expret.org --- My mum's

2 - Systems

2022/05/01

After spontaneously sharing about my losses etc. (apologies for doing these with a cold), I want to continue on a subject to do with systems. We all see people, organizations, issues in a certain way. The American journalist, political show host Rachel Maddow has a sentence on her Twitter profile that says, "I see political people". Her subject is politics. My subjects are a variety, but I see Systems. Everywhere, and this since all that happened in my life since 2015. For anything further on Pret,

3 - My Ordeal with the NHS Mental Health System

expret.org Former Pret A Manger Staff Speaks Out ·

2022/05/01

Since my brother died in Dec. 2014, which I only found out in Jan. 2015 and that he was already cremated without our knowledge, I tried to find help and never expected to be sent around in circles. My ordeal didn't get better after the bullying in Pret and losing my dad, and now mum. This Part 3 is a continuation of Part 2 "Systems" and zooms in on the NHS mental health service. There is a systemic refusal to acknowledge trauma and grief. For anything further on Pret, please see:

Pret A Manger Allergy Trial 2021 (3)

expret.org Former Pret A Manger Staff Speaks Out ·

2022/04/27

This is an ongoing piece on Pret's allergen issues after "Ongoing Mislabelling" Part 1 & 2. As a former Pret A Manger staff I explain how Pret keeps being cleared of responsibility after another customer got injured after eating an unlabelled allergen in a product. This is mainly about the training issues at Pret, or rather the lack thereof.
