What is serious insubordination? Gross misconduct at work is an act so serious that it justifies summary dismissal of an employee for a first offence, in other words, dismissal without notice or pay in lieu of notice. In broad terms, the act must be one that irreparably damages the trust and confidence between the employer and employee, such that the working relationship has become untenable. 2, record 1, English, - gross%20insubordination

[...] la concavité basale est [...] due à l'accumulation. C'est que nos versants ne sont pas en profil d'équilibre. Les débris s'accumulent à la base parce que l'évacuation par le talweg ne se fait plus, et elle ne se fait plus parce que, en raison du réchauffement climatique qui a suivi la dernière glaciation, l'évaporation a diminué les débits des cours d'eau et entraîné, par là, leur impuissance à charrier ce qui se présente à eux. Dans certains cas, le cours d'eau au fond de la vallée [...] a disparu [...]; alors, les matériaux descendus du versant et dits colluviaux (tandis que ceux qu'apportent les cours d'eau sont dits alluviaux) empâtent le fond et lui donnent un profil transversal en berceau. 3, record 4, French, - accumulation%20alluviale
