When the changes happen in our office

Post by thevardinator »

I'm a 25 hour contract part timer.

When the changeover happens in our office (van share etc), in Sep/Oct (only some of the office is changing over, the rest next year I think), will the job still be 25 hours?

Some of the jobs will obviously increase in size with extra packets and so-forth, therefore making them longer, and it's a struggle to fit the job into a 5 hour day as it is! I'm happy part-time, as it suits me at present.

Closer to 30 unfortunately! As we all know it's not possible to do the job properly in that time, will be even worse when these changes come in probably!

You will most likely be moved to a three-day week - that's what's going to happen to the 25-hour men in our office in a few weeks when the P&L disease gets a grip.
