I'd probably suit nights as I'm such a night owl but I dont want to do them, fark that.

used to do the standard lenth day on a 8.16 to 16.15 basis but I requested (or argued my ass off more like...) and ended up changing my hours. I wanted to keep the total weekly hours the same but have every monday off, eg) on the 4 days I was in do longer days.
They wouldnt wear this, but eventually caved in to allowing me to do a 9 day fortnight, so basically every other monday off.
So to make up the 7.5 hours per fortnight I 'gain' I just stay an extra hour on tues wed and thurs each week , making 6 , and one week of it I also come in half an hour early on those days, covering the other 1.5 hours. Snorted.

Every other monday off, no loss of hours/pay, and they get someone covering earlies and lates without paying anyone overtime. Everyones a winner baby.

I really dont know why I've just explained that all so detailed, as if anyone cares . lol


Only got another week there anyway (thank fook)
so back to 5 day working weeks for me after that, shock horror how will I cope
lol. But I am smug in the fact that my new job means I finish at 11.45am on Fridays , yay
I also will do 2 full days with them and then top up the rest of the week working as a locum , if I want to (which I will as I can afford to just drop to 18hrs a week , plus you coin it in more locuming anyway)
