I'd be really interested to know just how many lone parents could be that felxible.
Have just had yet another interview where their main focus was wether I could be 100% flexible and do whatever hours they asked (weekends were their main bugbear). I truthfully said that I would have no problem doing one weekend shift a week but that working both Saturdays and Sundays would be awkward, although given enough notice I could probably sort something out.
He asked why I couldn't be flexible and so I told him.
Imo it is bloody discrimatory (sp?) to expect anybody, but lone parents in particular to be 100% flexible and I wonder just how many lone parents this would be possible for.
