It's my day off on the Saturday after the strike day on Friday :nana . Perhaps I should go in on the Friday instead of being greedy and having me a 4 day weekend ;liar . Right just off to feed the pigs and get em ready for flying. :wave

I think they may have done it on purpose, and yes it is robbery cos I work 40 hrs a week but they only paid 31.5 hrs, even though I worked 40.

Will be interesting to see if they do it again this week cos it's my day off on strike day.
