They did ask if anyone could help out and do some of a lapsed round if you have time it would be appreciated the other day when it was light!

Well you could be putting yourself at risk but if they can make it worth your time with a realistic hourly rate why not!

They can ask you to do whatever lapsed duty they want if you have time, why would you get a special hr rate to work up your time?

Latest finish 15:30, not actually gone over duty hours yet since this has kicked off so not claimed OT other than working one of my days off to cover sickness. We are not using private cars in our office (rural singleton duties so we don't van share)

An hour over time on Saturday to clear my walk....got paid overtime for it.

No overtime today ....ended up bringing back two whole loops of mail but cleared the packets.

Busier than Xmas and still expecting us to lapse and double lapse....total joke.

I'm doing 12 hours most days now. But trying to do extra (for the money) I've knackered myself as I have the worst shin splints I've ever had. Realised today I'm no longer 18 years old :crazy:
