    Sounds like a rubbish employer, I would start looking for another job whilst you currently have one, as usually it's easier. Then if you do get a new job, on your last day if I were you I would make a point why I'm leaving to the boss!

    But don't feel guilty about leaving work on time, as long as you don't cut off a phone call to go home.

    Work overtime?> By Mutual agreement and paid at premium,,simples..too many tin pot managers are bullys.
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    Here's a quote from one of my bosses:

    "It's been noted who goes home a 5 o'clock. Anyone who doesn't work until 7pm can expect to go to the top of the redundancy list."

    I would also go to the top of the 'find yourself a new job urgently' list.

    Do as you are compelled to do for now, but frankly, I'd be out of there as fast as I could secure something else, even if I had to microwave burgers in McDonalds for a few weeks in between. Ensure you are paid for this 'compulsory' overtime.
