    What time does his work finish Sami?
    his contacted hours are 8am - 4:30pm
    he almost always works an extra hour when in the workshop so is usually back at 6ish but he's been on site in Derby i think today, he's just called and is very grumpy, not sure whats happened but early today he was told he prob couldn't finish on time on Chris's birthday :mad::rolleyes::(

    So he should have been home ages ago. Does he get paid for the extra time?

    *hugs* Sami :( OH is working an hour or two overtime each night from today. Mum had been here all afternoon so Rhys hadn't been fussing, and even I inwardly groaned when OH txt to remind me he wouldn't be home on time tonight.. I'm dreading getting to Friday already when I know I'll be dying for him to get home and take over! :rolleyes: :o

    Sami - I'm with you there my DH does shifts 3 earlies, 3 lates then 3 days off

    Earlies - start at either 5 or 6am finishing at either 1 or 2pm
    Laties - start at either 1 or 2pm finishing at either 9 or 10 pm except for his first shift when he finishes at either 11pm or 12am.

    When he is on lates I have to promise that daddy will come up and give her a kiss as soon as he gets in.

    The only time I don't like his shifts is when it Katie's birthday or at Christmas and he has to work.
