working overtime on leave - probably not.Daaav wrote:Oops I've just had a week off and on the Monday I worked 4 hours and Wednesday/Friday worked 5 hours on each just doing parcels and I got paid weekday OT1 is that normal?
On a serious note - you should have checked with the manager to see what you would get. I guess they thought that was a fair rate, but as its against agreements to do overtime on leave there isn't much you could anyway as by definition there is no agreed rate.

Re: On holiday/asked to come in to work
Because some people probably don't want to take holidays as they have nothing to do, maybe can't afford to go away.aiden01 wrote:Why would anyone want to work when they are on leave
They have to take time off but have nothing to do at home.
Single posties, who have little social life.
Married posties whose partners maybe at work, can't get all the same weeks off together.
People desperate for money, debts, credit cards to pay off.
There you go, a few reasons.
If you do a job too well, you’ll get stuck with it.

Re: On holiday/asked to come in to work
In our delivery office you are allowed to work one day on your week off.
The reasoning being you are off 5 days A/L, but RM operate 6 days a week
A generalisation here, but the people who do it at our DO tend to be those looking to bump up their "pension" income.
