Contractors not mentioned. They can fook off if they think they're paying me 4 days....
(Of course, I wont kick off quite yet until I see whats going on. I made that mistake once when a client asked me to work 12 hours, nigths evenings etc. I thought "sod off". Then they said, we'll pay you 1.5x day rate for 12 hours, 1.5x for nights, 1.5x for saturday, 2x for sunday. All cumulative. So sunday night 12 hours was 4.5x normal day rate. OK I;ll do it!!!!)

But yes, we'd have to up our rates 25%.

Thinking of uping my day rate by 25% to counter the proposed 4 day week by labour.
