Hello,
So I am working at a big german automobile firm. Let me give you a background of problem. I was hired with this company for a specific role but when i joined this company I found that the role for which i was hired for was not even there. My JD (job descripttion) was a hoax and I left a stable job to work in some outdated low end work. But I couldn't have complained and kept doing whatever was asked for. I was asked eventually to go to Germany for work assignment. Now the company policy states that if I am going for first time from the company to Germany I would effectively be under a bond of 1 year and to break it I would need to pay all the expense bore by the company. Since I was already not happy with work I declined this opportunity while making some excuses. However my manager kept bugging me about it and finally at the third time of his asking I reluctantly agreed. However as luck has it the day I booked my ticket I got offer from one other company. Till then I had worked in this company for 8 months. I resigned immediately but this happened on the very day before I was supposed to travel. During all this I never signed any document which made it my legal duty to travel. I cancelled the tickets to travel on my own and mailed my manager that I want to resign with reason that I would like to do something else in future. However now my manager is threatening me that I wont be getting any letters from the company. I am ready to serve notice period of 3 months, paid from myself the cost gone in cancelling the tickets and there is nothing in my offer letter or the policy of the company which says it can deny a employee letters on account of leaving company before a year. Tell me please what can be done about this? Is my manager really rightful in implying all this?
