If you're starting a new job and they say...

[MamaChris]

"Just pop along to my office when you arrive on Monday - I'll be in from 0800 onwards so whatever time suits you best"

do they really mean I can wander in around midday? (thought not!) or do they mean I need to be there at 8.05 sharp? would 9am look tardy? there are no set hours in my contract.

Go in at the usual time you plan to arrive in the mornings

9am then. good point! if I turn up at 8 on the first day, I'll probably feel under pressure to maintain the early start. hadn't thought of it like that

Good Luck - hope you will be happy there!
Nice way to start a new year!

thanks
