    It was great! Ten days with no phone, no telly and no newspapers. Oh! and no work either.
    Oh.. & 'off'
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

      Well done, but it's a cold bath you want, not a hot one.

              Good morning.

              I've only just got in to the factory but I'm still first in. They work funny hours here - everyone's late then they work into the evening.

                It used to be a developer thing, work late then not be able to get up in the morning. Also made it look like you were working longer hours, but you were not really. I am a morning person so it never worked for me.

                I was just reading in business/contracting thread about a guy who had a manager that want a 10 hour day. You really have to be prepared to walk away in this game.

                  Morning all!

                  Meant to be working today, but agency haven't sorted out any paperwork. So I'm at home with the girls today, which makes a nice change.

                    I've just been asked if I would consider changing from 4 days at work & 1 day at home to 2 days at work (longer commute & in all probability a stay over) & 3 days at home - same T&C's

                    what would the panel do?

                      Take it. Working from home is great - particularly if you have lax personal hygiene habits, or just fancy working in your pyjamas all day.
