Welcome to the real world

Plenty of people have to work weekends, bank holidays etc

Why should bankers get away with it ?

Why do you think your special ?

Monday to Friday for me. Do very very occasionally go and see a customer on a weekend but can count the amount of time I've done that on one hand.

Yeah school contracts is definately what helps!!

I was gutted when i lost mine Used to pick up 3 deaf children and take them from essex to brighton, monday+friday, used to bring in an extra Ł400 a month on top of my office wages! That hit me hard when we stopped doin that!!

I used to be out on the road full time, then a job came up in the office, which i had to go for as being out on the road just wasn't financially viable! My hackney/private hire ran out on Dec 4th 2009, so now just do blue disc work, but only go out on the road occasionally now, mainly in the office on control or the phones now!

no...im very fair with distributing the work out!! haha a lot of that goes on where you are does it? lol

I've got an agreed 4hrs overtime, design work, so I can sit in bed at home and do it on the laptop if I want, will probably take me 2hrs tops to do what I've gotta do as well. Gonna get it out the way this morning I think so I can give the motor a quick wash after if the weather is ok.
