[Molloy]

I can see how that might contribute to losing your job....... :

[f1tzy]

Not back till the 11th but we are hitting the ground running because the boss has plenty of work lined up. Owell replenish the bank accounts

[Spanrz]

Went back today. Now work for 3 weeks, then take a 3 week holiday 8D 8D

[MondeoManiac]

Never stopped. The only good thing was the pay for all those public holidays!

[[Tonko]]

I'm off till the 16th. Just going to sit around and do nothing.... Daytime TV does suck though.

[Bmobile]

Back today and loving it as there is not much on so I get time to catch up on all those little maintenece jobs on the truck and machinery. I only worked 4 hrs and looks like another short day tomorrow doing the services on the equipment before things get going properly.

Same here mate, i had Christmas/Boxing day off thats it. We get days 'owed' though so only 3 days of work this week for me

[Beer Baron]

I went back to work yesterday and got the sack for speeding in my own car on my own time on the last day of work last year, Apparently its bad for business and I'm irresponsible. I think i got the sack because i didn't get on with the boss's wife.

[Autolite]

How did they find out if it was in your own car and time?

your telling me.. i try my best to sit there.. i guess it was just the company. to many dodgy deals meant no one coming back so eventually it was sitting in a chair doing absolutely nothing for 9 hours. so like i said 2pm would come and id just get in my car and cruise on home

looks like ive found a new job starting next week. better hours double pay and it looks to be more hands on to keep me busy

I stuck the ticket in my tool box to pay it at lunch and the boss found it looking for coolant test strips.

[Marquis 351]

Bugger!!! back to work tomorrow!!!! I wont be able to take any holidays till next xmas were i will be takin a month off to go to Ireland! Its gonna be a long year!

[AUbigfoot]

Geeze, hopefully it makes the holiday at the end all that more enjoyable for you. I work on and off over the Christmas holiday, more so when the work comes in I can then do it. Not that motivated to start work tomorrow you know...being in Adelaide and 43c and all...like I needed an excuse not to work!

[GreenMachine]

Back today... Can't say I'm too excited at this stage, but I'll have a coffee and see how I go.

[BabyJ]

I was supposed to got back today but its gonna be too bloody hot for work, so I'm going to the beach.

Geez. I love working for myself sometimes.... : : :

Mate I'd be chasing that up...Seems a bit unfair to me.

Constructive dismissal perhaps?

Working 2 jobs (one being an office job, one being retail) there was really no rest over the festive season.
While the office job was winding down for the year, the retail work picked right up.
Now I’m back in the office today, and I’m already over it :(

[Yellow_Festiva]

Hello from the Maldives... may start working some time early Feb ;)
