I bet your colleagues love days like this
I'm a contractor (external adviser) mate ... pretty much come and go as I please and get paid at a day rate ...
.... but I'm sure my 'colleagues' do enjoy bright sunny days like today
Been living at my place for just over a year and load of mushrooms have suddenly sprouted up all over the garden. WTF?
Think they've rota'd me in for a late shift on Christmas day which I did last year and is the only time I can see my Son.
They've also given me new year off bizarrely when I've said I'll happily work all of it cos I won't be drinking or doing anything.
Trying to force me out I reckon.
Call in sick.
That or I’m sure someone would swap if it’s something others can do too. Do you get double time on Xmas day?
I prefer the "it ain't ****ing happening" approach, they say you shouldn't work two Christmas days in a row anyway and let alone the same shift.
Me and my ex alternate each Christmas with my boy so last year I had him Christmas eve overnight till mid-late afternoon pm Christmas day and this year will be vice versa.
They know that too and it's why I volunteered the late last year, and I've said I'll do the early this year if they want so if they give me the late it's clearly out of spite.
I won't call in sick anyway as it won't be them personally who ends up covering it so it wouldn't be fair.
The gardener might not have done. I’d probably kill myself trying to turn a lawnmower on.
