Its for next week and you only have 4 days to do them instead of 5 so they pay you more. Its not a permanent rise just a temporary one :sad:

Thanks for the replies. I thought a rise in payment was too good to be true!!!

Does anyone know if technically you have to deliver them?
i seem to recall part of the agreement was they were to be avoided (contractually)
during a bank holiday week.
Strictly speaking as long as i take my 20% would i be covered??

Yes and at 25% a day hence the extra payment.

Your manager is probably using the extra payments as his personal bonus :shock: :nervous :nervous :whistle
