Thats not a pay rise unless you're planning on taking up a second job.
Only a fool would make such a statement as a reduction in hours would make more part time duties have hours increased to fill the gap. And if you are full time the hourly rate for overtime would increase if they cannot fill those hours. So you would rather walk 7 hours a day for a pittance extra well I never ceased to be amazed by some postmen how thick they can be by not looking at the bigger picture.
