trouble is there is a little hurdle known as the law.
getting people to reapply for their jobs and then retaining a certain % of them is a legitimate way of making redundancies.
sacking everyone and then re-employing them all on lower pay, is not.0 -

Flexi time is something I do not get for some reason. I do work from home every now and again but never seem to achieve much with all the distractions!0 -

ironing??? i've got a wife.0 -
Flexi time is nice, although it's generally used for business needs, so if we are busy staff stay behind to help out, then on less busy days they can go home early.... You aren't generally allowed to come and go as you wish..... Although I do. :j0

Is it not the same for all workers who previously contracted out? Presumably the other side of the coin is a lower public/private sector pension, have I got that right?'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

if you don't like it, or don't think you are paid enough, quit and get a better paid job elsewhere.
if not, stop moaning.
the point is, your job is not needed. it is an indulgence and luxury. these cretins should be left to their own devices. if they get a job, great. if not, they can starve or go to prison.0
