Well, I find it insulting as I don't get time off because of the
extra hours I work, and I would imagine the millions of people
working for the many companies in many industries that don't leech of
public money, and don't have a corrupt union propping them up might
feel similarly about the situation.


Do you regularly work a 37.5 hour week but only get paid for 35?


I regularly work weeks of 40+ hours, and in my contract I specifically
had to sign an opt-out of the European Law on the maximum 48 hour week,
and I get paid a fixed salary based on a notional 37.5 hour week, with no
overtime or time off over and above that.

And compared to some people I know I have it pretty easy.

But very few companies functioning within the constraints of real world
economics could afford their staff the joyride that LU staff seem to
benefit from.


So you'll be signing up with LU quite soon then?
