    Ah not a very good month for me. I have actually lost £60 through work which i am not happy about at all. (Basically i had done some overtime since Feb, and instead of paying me for it, they gave me it in holiday. The holiday year ends on Friday and i havent been able to take it at all, they say there isnt enough time to give it to me, so thats 10 hours (worth just over £60) gone. NOT HAPPY).

    I feel for you beefined as something similar happened to me last year ...The cow of a boss wouldnt let half of us have time off { holidays } as they were understaffed at the time ......I worked over 50 hrs a week for a considerable amount of months when I was only contracted for 22 hrs a week .
    I lost 2 full weeks holiday time off .......yet all the boses friends got the good hours {ie not opening and closing times ] ..and guess what they all had holidays abroad when they wanted - leaving the rest of us with availble days to take our holidays !!!! I decided to never do overtime again , and I eventually left as they refused to pay me in cash to make up for some of the holidays as the cut off date had passed :(



    £3.00 pinecone voucher : Im still awaiting another voucher fro mthem ..but it seems to be taking its time .....does anyone know how long they usually take to arrive if they are delayed ??

    Keys - mine took nearly 2 weeks when it arrived this week. Apparently they send it out next working day and then it can take 10 working days to arrive

    Oh my! i would be really upset! i suppose my 10 hours doesnt look that bad to your two weeks! I'v vowed never to do overtime ever again, im always asking for holiday and they wont give it to me. I was ranting about it to a few of my colleagues, and they didnt know overtime was paid in holidays! I just wanna leave that place, but a job is a job!
    Saving for a house :T
    Will question every purchase I make!
