If it is possible to work less hours than those stated? For some background, I am looking to return to work after being off for 5 1/2 years with my DD and have seen a job that I am hopeful of at least making the interview stage. The hours would be 9-5, Monday to Fri in a school.
The issue is the location, it is in an area where although it is technically only 20 mins drive away, is in actuality about 1 hours drive due to traffic. (Not in rush hour either!) I can put my child in before/ and after school care, without a problem in the mornings, but
am concerned that I would not make it back before 6pm, at which point a late fee fine would be payable.
It is not well paid, (approx £15,000) but I would really like to apply for it. However, I am concerned about the journey, I would not want the stress of worrying about being late doing the pick up for my daughter every day.
Should I reach the interview stage, do you think it would be really cheeky to ask if it is possible to finish at 4.30pm in order to address this issue?
