Ringpieces. This. My hours are 9 to 5. I get in at half 7 every morning so generally leave at half 4. If I have a deadline I'll stay as long as it takes. Anyone who has an issue with me leaving at half 4 can go f**k themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I don't think it was out of place in the context of the conversation. I don't come in early for some sort of arse kissing project, I do it because it suits me better and I can leave earlier and enjoy my evening, get exercise done etc. Sorry for any offence caused. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You come in 1.5 hours early to get away 0.5 hour early? You are the real winner here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it supports my assertion that anyone getting upset at me not staying to 5 can f**k off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crroma Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Ill spare a thought for you diligently arriving to the office at half seven tomorrow as I'm just having my last 15 minutes of sleep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Our work hours are half 8 to half 5 and there's a guy who always brags that he gets in at half 7 every day as he's so busy. Needless to say, he's a wanker. And a Ross County fan unsurprisingly. I call him Gareth Keenan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I'll fill in for DA Baracus while he's not here. Why are you turning up at work an hour early for no reason? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Flexitime is the bollocks in situations such as these. I get to turn up when I want and pretty much leave when I want. I've worked a power of additional hours this week already (five and a half by the end of today), but means that once I hit the magic number of +35 hours, I can take a weeks' holiday on top of my annual leave. Which is great, as I have hardly any holidays left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
