Friggin old girls employer.

She works for a retirement home as a kitchen hand is 67 years old and after putting in for holidays a few weeks ago so we can head up to Mildura to have xmas with her grand kids they tell her she may have to work.

Fuckers are gunna get an irate call from a disgrunlted son of an employee tomorrow....

that's sucks ,my misses she has to work over all the Christmas holidays and new years day .but she does not even see more than $40 -$50 in here pay cheque for the week .this is due

to that she works in a 24 hour servo .and the bad thing is it is completely legal for them to do so . she has worked there for over ten years

50 dollars a week extra for working on Christmas... I'd tell em to stuff Christmas up their ass hole

People that work in service and hospitality industries and expect to work bank teller hours pi$$ me off.

I'm with Tab there.. Sorry blokes.. I get the circumstances change when kids turn up etc.. But you go into an industry you work the hours of the industry.. I didn't work 9am-5pm as a baker.. We did 10pm - 8am then 2pm-5pm prep for the next night. Interview someone for a job who said the night shift didn't work for them, they got told they weren't suitable for the position.

Dags case where the old gal has put in for holidays and then they changed their minds is a bit friggin rude.. Especially since she obviously knew to put in for holidays early if she wanted time off over that period..

Back when I ran a ( little....hehe ) pub here in Radelaide, family always came first on xmas day.

I would make sure that staff with kids - under 10 - didn't work the 2 hours pubs are allowed to be open in the morning and under 16 (but only if possible) didn't work in the night club on xmas night.

Only ever paid them the normal amount but 'free drinks till ya fell over' once we closed and "staff drinks" were on.

One year, that added up to 7 & a half grand..................should of seen me trying to explain that to my boss.

Edit.

None of that really pmo but it's gunna be 40 tomorrow and that does

my misses never complained about it ,due to that she was told that it is there busiest time of the year and that they could never have holidays in that time before she even got the job ,and that the pay does not

change ether . just sux that we have never got holidays the same time .well that's what I say to here . but honestly why would it be different to ambulance people they get paid 4 times more than there normal pay

on those days .now that is the same kind of a job as a service and hospitality one . so how about complaining about that instead ?
