So what was the need for the attitude, do you tell everyone who politely corrects you on something to grow up? There really was no need, was there?

If you think that 15 hours is the same 15 hours 59 minutes, I trust you would be happy to work the latter and be paid the former? Nope, didn't think so!

I'm well aware of the difference thank you, but that's not what this was about, was it?

I just wonderd why you felt the need to post a nasty, snide little comment that added nothing.:)

Please point out what is nasty or snide about what I wrote?

You are having a laugh, aren't you?

It was patently obvious that the poster you felt the need to "correct" meant under 16 hours rather than over 15.

Being technically correct doesn't make your post any less unpleasant or uneccessary.

You are seeing something that is not there! I stated a fact, I made no judgment.

Well I'm by no means the only one who saw it, so perhaps that should tell you something.:)

Aren't you? You are the only one who is making an issue of it!

If you call passing an idle moment whilst bored and unable to sleep making an issue of it:)

It is far clearer to say 16 hours or more because people may work 15 1/2 hours a week.

No point confusing people, is there? I mean, the whole point of this board is to help make benefit regulations clearer...?

Sorry your thread was hijacked by someone with an axe to grind, OP.

DMG is correct - you cannot claim SMI as you work 16 hours or more a week.
