Xmas week just gone was my rest week off and this summer two rest weeks fall on 1st and last weeks of school hols :nana . If you have a crap duty, the 6 day weeks are a nightmare though.

Word is that our area manager wants to get every one on days off and no week in 4 or 6 off at all.Why would He want to do this and can He? Wont it mean taking a lot of work off of people who do the weeks in 4?They will have to have about 14 hours work taken off of them wont they? :hmmmm

How does a Wallington week work for leave reserves? :hmmmm Could it be a fairer way of distributing days off? Maybe so that leave reserves on rolling days off aren't given Tuesday as their day off every week. :hmmmm

In our office, reserves are on the same, so all have 1 week off in 6.
