Unless you dont get sick pay, i Yup i don't get sick pay for my first 2 days off. So basically if yer going to be ill in my work just take the week off. Ridiculous. So aye with covid times we have people still going to work when they feel like shite to make sure they are getting paid. So between all the shite bugs going around and covid we still havnt had a positive test since last December. Quite incredible really 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgive me as I’ve never worked anywhere you don’t get paid if you’re off so have no clue how this works but are you saying you get SSP for 2 days then the company pays you for the rest of the time you’re off? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You don't get paid for the first two days of being off and then you get SSP. By then already lost 2 days wages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeAreElgin Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 You take time off work for a haircut?Used to travel a lot and found myself struggling to get a haircut at the weekends, thus a new habit was formed. Quite addicted to it to be honest. Good rush. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last place I worked in Coleraine, everyone (apart from me) got their haircut during office hours. The barbers was three doors down, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a shower of c***s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SANTAN Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Immediate showers after hair cuts are required. I've lost many a good t shirt to the bin when I've been unable to get home immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
