      The holiday is after the contract officially / technically finishes, so can't wait. There may be an extension, but I have already stated to ClientCo that the holiday cannot be cancelled under any circumstances. All I have to do is work out if I should do 2 weeks or not.

      I hope Mrs 5* appreciates you are doing this for the right reasons.
      If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

          I've not walked yet - but if they push then I'll push back even further.

          they are trying to impose extra working and almost make it mandatory for everyone to worked extra hours for no extra.

            I emailed the manager yesterday saying I won't under any circumstances work weekends or late friday or late wednesday.
            I'm already out the house for 11ish hours and are asking for an extra 2 hours / day.
            I just said i will work efficiently and effective - they haven't got back to me since

                No bobs here and probably won't be. Its a smallish startup company with about 15 people with unrealistic milestones.

                Strange how non of this was mentioned at interview time
