Flexibility

We've got the usual staffing problems next week, coinciding with a class visit double-booking and Frog's having to go out to a meeting in Pardendale to cover for T.Aldous and Mary, both of whom are having the day off.

Luckily, we have staff available who owe time back from our being closed on Easter Saturday and who are willing to volunteer to do the class visits.

Unluckily, we have managers who say that staff can only pay back like-for-like and so can't pay back a Saturday by working a Wednesday.

"can't pay back a Saturday by working a Wednesday."

Bunny thought her former employer was the only one with these rules. Apparently it has spread world-wide, more's the pity.

Hippity-hop!
