Originally posted by BrowneIssue View PostIt used to be the norm. Easter and August Bank Holidays were always key dates for system upgrades. For the first decade of my working life I don't think I ever got either of those off. That is, I always worked through from the preceding Monday to the following Friday - 12 days straight. And typically long hours over the weekend.
And the best bit?
I was permie so received no extra money.
I'd require time off in lieu at the very least.Comment
