It is often what a reference does not say which can tell you more about someone who’s applying for a job. 
Spot on GG,
All the crap about “its illegal to give a bad reference” is just that, the employer is legally obliged to give an honest opinion, OR, as I used to do with the ■■■■■■`s, decline to give a reference, the silence is deafening, enough said 
The good lads got a reference that told the truth, as its been said, dont burn your bridges, I normally found that drivers who you gave a good reference, came back, when their new employer did
nt deliver the promises.

I am a bit fed up with my job and want to leave asap…could i just say on monday I want to go now hand everything in and walk away?
I been there for 1 .5 years…I got terms and conditions but i never signed the contract…
Im quite sure if the shoe was on the other foot and you were sacked, told to go immediately U would want yer pound of flesh and ALL you were entitled to including a weeks pay in lieu , So do the right thing, give a weeks notice. If he doesnt want you to work it then its a different kettle of fish.
Employee ↔ Employer Relationship works both ways !!!

Maybe things will improve when he gets a new girlfriend
