Heating? Are you some sort of feeble Southerner or something?

I'm not but my wife is Irish and likes to throw turf on the fire if the house isn't warm enough!

I want a 10% payrise if I'm paying the power and heating bill!

Mr C is asking the same - but is slightly mollified by the recent no-limit broadband holiday.

I like your thinking!

I'll have a go at blagging that when my contract comes up for renewal

COVID-19 could be bringing office work to an end. We could all be remote permanently. Equivalent of about a 7% payrise

Get them booked - with a bit of intelligence and some working from home I have made 5 days mean i get the whole 2 xmas weeks off - last day in office 20th Dec not back in until 6th Jan....

which is nice.

although I will probably spend most of it either drunk or wondering if it is to early to start drinking - maybe just get up later so there is less time between breakfast and beer o'clock...

Already done that! Which is very very nice!

It's my fault that I've not used them. Have to see what's happening meeting-wise over the next 3 weeks. See if I can squeeze 'em in...

I'm carrying 5 over and I've got 5.5 to use between now and 1st Jan!

Yup - in addition I always seem to carry 5 days over so in reality I had 37 days this year plus B/H

Excluding bank holidays?

This just gets better. The boss is discussing (and liking) the concept of duvet days.

[psychocandy]

**** that. I'd rather keep rinsing the public sector.

25 years contracting off and on (18 years contracting) and never had to take a gig I had to stay away overnight. And I live in wales.

[vetran]

Excluding bank holidays?

of course, plus sick days

[vwdan]

32 days per year holiday

Excluding bank holidays?

[cojak]

so why are you so interested in spending your time on a forum which I guess is more suited to contractors? Beats me!

He's a permie in job only...
