hi all

im currently working at a single man mot center.
start at 8 finish at 6 mon -friday and open 8-1 on a saturday

tbh my wages are piss poor yet they think im on good money.
last week the sujested to me staying open later on a saturday to get more custom without paying me more money.

i said i didnt wana do it.

so theve looked in to getting sum 1 else to do the saturday. the person they found wil only do it if he gets to do 2 days so not only will i loose out on saturdays money ill be loosing a day in the week too.

i personaly cnt live on 4 days money. so im gonna be pretty much foooked.

now do i swallow the 3 more hours and keep all my wages or not.

i would be working 58 hours a week for £300 wich equates to £5.17

is that legal?
shal i find sum where else.

i know its personal but i just need sum advice realy

The person incharge is obv an idiot dick, with no idea of business or how to people manage.

There is no sense in not paying you for the extra 3... but then getting sombody in and paying them, are they working for free?

Put that to them, see how they respond.

Personaly id find a new mot station keeping your job till you have then leave and start proceedings for unfair work condition and being forced out of your job.

Feck them up the arse

its these hard'ish times that you really get ponied..:( a friends work stop the xmas bonus, reduced and stop various pay rises, eventhough there making more than ever and wont ever be effected by it all due to being health based.. scammers

you can phone c.a.b or moan, but they will just want you out the door... start looking for a new job now and when it comes alone take it, dont see how it goes as they sound like nobers
