    Yeah and some companies are making their workers do more to be worth the money. It's not about having been at a company for 10 years plus anymore, it's about who is willing to bust a gut. In some ways I can see why but at the same time it makes long timers at companies wonder why they bother.

    I saw about some stopping paid lunch breaks. That seemed counter intuitive to me. People legally have to take one so the company loses their time in productivity anyway as they can't force them to work.

    Went through the stuff I took to work to see if it's sellable. A cigarillo tin and two russian alarm clocks went onto ebay. The books will all go to the book bank near my work. Shame to let some of them go (70s baby rearing book, lol) but can't keep everything just because it's old-ish. Will hunt for more tonight.

    Hi everyone!

    SFD 13 today. Another full days overtime done. Have also unofficially been told that there is good news regarding my contract - it's being extended by a year, and they may be asking me to increase my hours. Expecting some official news about this on Friday.

    Hi everyone :D
    I'm shattered. This week is already not going according to plan. DH back on the downward spiral, ds and his blimming groin strain, work coming out of my ears etc. I don't think that I can make the nsd target this month but I'll keep going so I can at least maximise it all.
    Fantastic news on your contract Welshkitty :j
