My employer has agreed to my going back three days a week, 8-4 with one of those days at home.
I know my senior boss is unhappy about the working from home day (she doesn't believe that I'll be sending my dd to nursery on that day - easy to prove though) but my immediate boss is happy with the arrangement and agreed to it before asking her. My senior boss is now insisting on a three month probation period at the end of which they will review the situation. Can they do this?
The reason for the one day at home is that I don't drive - i'll be relying on lifts to get to work as the train takes two hours making it impossible to make work on time and nursery and I'd rather only be reliant on someone else as little as possible. Also if dd gets ill etc at nursery I'll have to get the train back - meaning a long trip. At least by being at home three days out of five I'm cutting the chances of that happening on a day I'm at work.
I'm trying to get work closer to home but I can't find anything close to my income (which really isn't that much!)
