When someone changes jobs, their old employer should give them a form P45.

But his name, it seems, has found its way back to his old employer.

Even his old employer, the State Department, seems to have forgotten.

All too often, the old employer has already accepted the resignation and won't reverse its decision.

Because your old employer will probably be called for references, that knowledge could mean a better recommendation.

If a new opportunity offered, he could take it, with a recommendation from his old employers.

But there is no guarantee of such a return to his old employer.

Was it possible to start the new job without the old employer knowing and still collect the bonus?

Now he is one of the applicants for the new openings at his old employer.

One of the people they've got it in for is your old employer.
