I left a job in October 2007, I gave a months notice but they asked me to leave at the end of the week on full pay. I started another job a month later, I recieved my final pay and P45 with almost all the money deducted from it for holidays taken, fair enough. But almost 4 months later I recieved a letter telling me that due to my contract I owed them £1500 for training.

I wrote back to them saying that I thought my final pay was in final settlement for anything outstanding. Now they have taken out a court judgment against me for the money. Can en ex employer just decide when they feel like it to send you a bill. It was 4 months after leaving their employment.

I felt very lucky to find a job easily as a ‘returner’ after 18 years bringing up a family.

The problem is that as soon as I started the job I realised the boss was unreasonable. She is frequently rude about my work and shouts at me in front of my colleagues. Most of the time this is unjustified. I am conscientious, work very hard, and have learned the job quickly. I have made a few small errors but she says she wants 100% accuracy. I do not think anyone can be 100% accurate.

I am unhappy in this job but have realised that I am a good worker with desirable skills to offer. I would like a different job.My question is:

1) Will it look bad on my CV if I only stay in my first job( after 18 years of not working) for a short time?

2) How do I get a new job without having to ask my current employer for a reference?
