      Sounds to me like you're using the excuse of a single hour per day to look for other issues you claim 'could constitute' a breach.

      You need to get back to permiedom and quick.
      So say you started a new place and the first day they said, BTW you have to suck the managers knob every day at 3pm. I am guessing you would have assumed you wouldn't have had to do that without asking at the interview.

        Not if it wasn't in the contract and certainly only for premium rate.

        But seriously, as a key part of selling knowledge, hours are important enough to discuss pre-contract and at the very latest, contract signing.

          Dont talk so stupid. If you want to act like a twat, go ahead. Oh, I see you already did.

              It's Kandr/Russell/other banned incarnations current username, twat is part of his natural persona, it's just a case of when it emerges. As we all know he was a bonehead to not agree the hours up front or during contract negotiations.
              Of course; given his posting history; it's entirely possible the whole thread is a trolling exercise.

                  I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful. [Christopher Hitchens]
