Are you Neo trying to find out what the white rabbit means? If you changed your job title to porn star would you be moaning about the times you just worked? Interesting thought B)

Mate - me too. I worked 10am till midnight last saturday, and then all day sunday too. Still, it was overtime and i'll get just over 400quid out of it - which will be spent on my car im sure. ;)

 

So thats why we do it!

I'm sure you quoted good overtime rates for the work Dan? Especially if it wasnt pre-agreed cover. I make a lot of money over unagreed OT as they have no right to call you out if you didnt agree to it ;) One unsolicited call out paid for my Varis lip way back when :teeth:

unfortunately in the position I am in I do not received any overtime payments (its expected)

Balls to that! Hope you get reimbersed another way. I would never sign up for a contract where they can ring you whenever they please and demand you do OT :rant:

Isn't that why most of us work in the industry, because of the fairly high money??

 

Agree with Chris, you need a better contract. ;) That's a bit on the nose.
