Re: How many hours do you do on average a week?
That's my answer, although they might get ten min's a week out of me on average if I underestimate the amount of packets I leave four times a week.legin1 wrote:i dont do any, when dim asks who wants o/t i tell him to employe more staff or make dutys realistic...
Can't go back early when leaving stuff. This is only for the new boss who seems more enlightened than the previous one, who had to wait at the office
until my finishing time and deliver my mail for me so I could finish on time.
Getting good at it, no overtime this week.

Re: How many hours do you do on average a week?
Not a single hour of OT in over 5 yrs. Probably longer.
have gone over my time on a handful of occasions.
have finished early on more occasions than I can count.
net win in my favour.
Thanks RM.

Re: How many hours do you do on average a week?
This is what I don't quite understand, ghost O/T is still rampant in some units, then others are saying how there workloads are terrible so refuse to do O/T. My unit being the first instance, full DM revision done, 3 hour average delivery spans, 1in 2 sats off or those who wanted to remain on a rotating rest day did. Needless to say our revision was s**t but we got the best from the s**t that was there. most members happy! RM not happy at all! nevermind!
