Xmas pressure payment...

Post by anTi »

... Ours was just agreed at 22hours SA rate for the 2 weeks leading up to the big day.

Was wondering how this compares to other offices.

So, how much are you lot getting???

:Very Happy

Should also add that there will be no D2D's and no absorption during this time as well.

3 hours.
Plus 7hr 20 for working your day off.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Count yourselfs lucky mate,alot of offices dont make time out of the job anymore and have long and heavy walks,the thought of busting there balls for that little bit of docket just aint worth the grief anymore.
Good luck to you and your colleagues enjoy it coz it might not be there in the near future.

No idea what the rest of the office is doing but I'm not doing any. From what the manager said the other day it would be SA if it's arranged (just working your day off) but the rest of the OT is just normal and it still has to be pre authorised (and the manager will determine if the traffic allows for OT).

What is this madness? This is my fifth Christmas and I've never had any payment. How can some offices get a payment and others not?

Someone explain please.

Nope, no revision yet.

Word is we can escape this mess for most of next year too :Very Happy

I guess the whole payment thing is yet another 'local agreement'.
