011001000110010101110010 Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 No, new years day is double pay. No one comes in anyway, and even if some for some weird reason that someone does they will apperciate you will feel rough and not bother asking and hard questions.

I can pretend not to be hung over for about 10 mins at a time. So normally by then the customer has left with their £40 bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Morris Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 I always work New Years Day, you get £80 for doing nothing all day. It's ideal for me because I don't 'celebrate' New Years Eve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 I'd do it myself, can't imagine many people wanting a bike on new years day, not to mention the fact that most people would assume you'll be closed anyway..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Christmas day is bank holiday, so if you normally work it, you will get payed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun H Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Christmas day is bank holiday, so if you normally work it, you will get payed it. If you're contracted to work it that is, if you're a temp or something then you won't obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 The last three years I've worked Christmas day and New Year's Eve in a pub (I.e. during the turn of the year) which sucks. But I'm not doing it this year, I'm having a year off, when you guys are all working. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think that would be fun really Im working most days this week, then Im off xmas day, boxing day, new years day. Im contracted for 11 hours and Im doing 31 so thats pissed me off quite a bit really. I got loads of homework to do, and I've not been able to start and thats not an excuse this time, this is the only time I can get to the computer cos im at work otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 I'm guessing opening times are simular throughout the nation for Woolworths and stuff, so can anyone tell me If Woolworths will be open on Saturday (Christmas Eve!?).Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
