So interviewed for a job and due to circumstances they want me to start the next day. Okay bit short notice but hey I want the job. I understand that I will be needed to travel occasionally, that's okay too. Fast forward to being in the office. I discover there is no flexibility in working hours ( unheard of in IT!!) can't work from home, travel time is during my time, ie not during business hours as I'm expected to be on client site, and I don't get my time back nor paid for! This was not made clear at the interview and any other company has either paid or given time off in lieu!! I was bullied by the boss into traveling today just before I go on holiday on Thursday! I have so much to do to organise for 4 people going abroad! So I arrive on client site to discover that the client isn't going to be there today!! Grrrr I am seriously fuming! Also found out that you can't take any annual leave until you actually have worked the time and accrued it!! So tomorrow I am going in with a resignation letter to give the boss if he does not agree to allow me time off in lieu of my travel time! And I'm not talking just an hour or 2! Today I have been on the go since 5.30 and won't get home until 10! AIBU to think he needs me more than I need him (the boss) !! I have savings set aside so we will be fine until something else comes along!!
