oh look its getting towards xmas and the usuall crap has started no work for weeks then all of a sudden angard want to recruit more staff heres a novel idea why don't you get some of your loyal staff some more work before trying to take on any more, at this rate will be lucky to get 40 hours before xmas

I think you will find its Royal Mail recruiting for the Christmas casuals not Angard

angard recruiting through the job center as well

I've not heard from them in 3 weeks, casually looking for more work yesterday and saw that they're still advertising for more people.

Onto my 6th week with 0 work

If i don't get a shift this week is that me screwed and back to £6?

[tabact]

Have you any annual leave you can use this week to book a day's holiday and pause the six week clock or you will be back to minimum wage. I'd give payroll a ring if you do have some holiday owing to see if you can use it at short notice to pause the clock and what's the minimum hours you have to book for it to pause the clock eg 8 hours.

Took 16 hours holiday last week ( turns out i was missing a pay slip so only onto my 4th week now )

Anyone working out of Belfast/Mallusk getting any shifts?

Ive been with angard around a year now

Getting sick to death of hearing the same person tell me there are no shifts every day, if they even bother to answer the phone that is

Last text message i had was the 3rd of September and that was a shift for Aberdeen!

Just find it hard to believe that there are 0 shifts going for an entire month when Christmas is around the corner and the xmas casuals are getting start dates



Edit:
Are you saying that if i take holiday hours the 6 week timer will reset?

[Fwancis]

No, you will still be on 4 weeks, by taking holiday you have stopped the clock not reset it.

Thanks for the info

Turns out a select few are getting weekends no problem

Think its time for a new job, sitting here with nothing and being lied to about shifts

Not surprised really

[Leon32]

I was in mallusk tonight, Saturday offered also.

[AC2490]

Hopefully this is the start of the shifts again

Was surprised when i got the text message for Saturday, 1st text in what feels like forever

[Leon32]

8 of us casuals got contracted for christmas so thats probably why the shifts dried up. Friday was my first shift in 5 weeks also.
