    Did I miss something here Moy?? Did you get that Job?
    Are congratulations in order?
    Any excuse to crack open a bottle

    My wife has a contract for 26 hours
    Last week she actually worked 55 hours
    I just cannot understand why these days so many people just don't turn up for work and seem to get away with
    Or why so many sick days still get taken regularly on weekends.

    Congrats Moy for getting a job! I quit working before summer time as I had enough.. Lol!
    I am studying at the moment, I really want to get an office job so I am pursuing my UK qualification. Yes, you can ask your employer they actually like it. Just say, you are available this day and nothing to do if they need someone to do overtime/ extra hours you are quite happy to do it.

    Hi Moy, Yes you can actually ask your employer for more hours if you want to. I was on bank hours per week before but now full time on contract 40 hours a week, but worked 58 hours last week! I know! I'm becoming workaholic now but good money

    For any extra hours you should be remunerated for that, there should be an overtime rate in your contract

    sometimes its not worth doing extra hours, because you end up with very little extra, as the tax man wants most of it, no wonder the economy suffers theres no incentive
