    Well its quite simple really. Id you dont like it, tell the agent to shove the contract where the sun dont shine (you might have to point out you are not talking about their mouth! ).

      Well, I've called the client. Decided I needed to hear it from them because if I'm going to be taking 2 hours off each shift, they need to know about it!
      He didn't know what the hours were, had asked the question of Manpower after I asked him in the interview but they hadn't got back to him. He's going to call again and check so hopefully I'll know more tomorrow.

        support job

        I did this for a month. You don't get time for a sh*t without disaproving looks, it's like a production line. In China.

        Then the client decides that it doesn't like the team, and one of the middleman agents has to re-recruit in a rush.

          Also, at 10 hours billable, this is only 35 hrs per week, as the 4 on, 4 off shift pattern covers 8 days.

            And the agency pays monthly, 2-3 weeks after the end of the month.

                      In this case it's Certes->Manpower->HP (for BT)
