36 Hr - Whats my Start time, No one Knows!!

Post by 19times »

Alrite fellas and Ladies.

I am on 36 hrs (was 33 but got asked to do an extra hour Wed/Thu/Fri a while back) but I have just been put on another walk now due to family friendly and my finish time has gone to 13:10 starting today.

Finish time was the same as the fulltimers before this - 13:38 due to the office working through thier 40min break :no no otherwise it would be 14:18.

I sat down with the Dim support and he wrote down i should be starting as follows. Mon/Tue 06:43 Wed/Thur/Fri 05:43 :hmmmm and Sat it could be either depending on what day my day off falls.

Lino today questioned me coming in at 0:643 asking have you gone fulltime :crazy:

Lino said he'll find out my start times and get back to us.

Rm, clueless to a man they have even confused me over this :oops:

Anyone fancy a go at this? I'll probably see him tomorrow over it.

Yours, :roll:

ok... so if you spread your 33 hrs over a 5 day week that is 6:36 per day. To finish at 13:10 you need to start at 06:34. On wed/thu/fri you start 1 hr earlier to make up your extra 3 hours and if your day off falls on one of these days you start an hour earlier on saturday instead...? Also on these days you would be working over 7 hrs so you get 40 mins break.

Ok cheers for that Phil.

I started at 06:43 today, someone (Dim support) has got their maths wrong.

So it's 06:34 on my late starts and 05:34 on my early ones? I probably be given the keys to open up on them days :chuckle
