Mississippi Bullfrog Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 How about no bonus, working from 3.30pm Christmas Eve to 2.00am Christmas Day, then back at 8.30am Christmas Day until 1.00pm? Then working the two bank holidays Monday and Tuesday. Oh, and a new role which isn't paid means I get to buy myself a new laptop out of my own pocket. 1 4 Quote

Stu Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 Just now, fullscreenaging said: Every day is a learning day. How long are your shifts? Would too long be a sufficient answer Due to the nature of the job we dont have set times as such and work by the minute! some days for me can be as little as 8 hours 23 minutes up to a around 10 hours 54 minutes! work anything between 39 - 44 hours a week Quote
Bianco2564 Posted December 23, 2021 Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) No Xmas bonus for me, but 12 days off starting today and pay rise brought forward from April to January 1st. That'll do. Edited December 23, 2021 by Bianco2564 4 Quote
