I have to go to work on the first day of the Easter hols!

Ok so I have a job and its fine-working on Saturday mornings-5 hours. However the store manager asked me to go in for 4 hours tommorow! So ok I'll get paid but she wanted me to go in for like 6 hours! which no way was I doing. I'll make sure I leave promptly at 1pm! NO WAY am I going in again during the hols! I have REVISION to do for my exams! I need to RELAX! Getting up at 6.20am on Saturday mornings is bad enough!

Good luck with the revision!

Tannhauser It doesn't take a flying pass in further maths to figure out the sum of what has been, what is and what's to come. It's none.

Actually, this leads into a question...

When *are* the Easter holidays? I mean, for people who are not at schoool? Is Good Friday a holiday?

It is for me, yep

I have Good Friday and Easter Monday off. And as I'm a Civil Servant, I also get Maundy Thursday afternoon off as a Privilege leave

Oooooo the advantages of being a Civil Servant .... we also can take up to 5 years career break when having kids

Tycho As Emily Bronte once put it: "Wtf?"

I get Good Friday off.

For the last few years it has played host to the now legendary "Good Friday all-dayer in Weston" They can get pretty messy

What a stressful 4 hours! There were loads of customers and a couple of really evil ones! I really almost lost it!

However most of the customers are actaully nice and the staff are nice.

The manager asked me I wanted any more hours during the week but I said I had exams to revise for. so the next 3 weeks will be made up of lie-ins, shopping and of course plenty of revision for those lovely GCSE's!

I'll stick to my Saturday mornings!
