A nursery worker may lose her job after she was spotted taking part in the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony while on sick leave, it emerged today.<\/span><\/p>\n

Amy McIntosh had been signed off work for several weeks when her bosses caught her on TV dancing as a giant Tunnock’s tea cake during the celebrations in Glasgow.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 25-year-old had signed up to be a volunteer for the Games, but is not believed to have asked for time off for rehearsals, which began three weeks ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms McIntosh is now understood to be facing a crunch meeting with her bosses at the Woodlands Day Nursery in Houston, Renfrewshire.<\/span><\/p>\n

A source told The Sun: ‘Nobody could believe it when they saw her on TV, bold as brass. <\/span><\/p>\n

‘She must have been at rehearsals at the same time she was saying that she wasn\u2019t well enough to work. It’s very disappointing.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms McIntosh, from Erskine, confirmed to the paper that she had been off sick at the time of the ceremony, it is believed with tonsillitis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Facing showdown talks with bosses: Ms McIntosh (right) had signed up to be a volunteer for the Games, but is not believed to have asked for time off to rehearse<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

She says she has been ‘signed off sick’ by a doctor and has a referral for the hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n

The opening ceremony for the 20th Commonwealth Games was watched by some 9.4million viewers at the height of the celebrations last Wednesday night.<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as the Tunnock’s tea cake, the \u00a320million ceremony featured a giant haggis, cabers, golf clubs, a gay wedding, 41 Scottish terriers and Rod Stewart as well as other Scottish inventions such as the television and Sherlock Holmes.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

After the ceremony, Ms McIntosh’s friends praised her on her Facebook page, with one saying that she was ‘shining bright like the star that you are.’ <\/span><\/p>\n

A spokesman for Woodlands declined to comment.<\/span><\/p>\n
