Use this one.. scroll down for the calculator https://goodcalculators.com/overtime-calculator/ You clearly have the time if you are piss balling about on here for double your normal rate instead of actually doing any work..

What happens when a member of your staff comes up and says I think my wages are wrong this week Mr Josh.. Do you tell them to google it??? I bet you send them to Payroll to sort it out... I can just see it now.. Senior management were all in a tizzy because they have too much work and not enough people and from the end of the table a lone man stands up, "I will be your hero" you say," You pull your shirt open and there is a big big J emblazoned on a T-shirt underneath.. "Get that man a medal" someone shouts... There is a small but brief standing ovation and then relived they fuck off home sharpish for the night leaving you in charge... You wander off to spend time on the internet while all the minions do all the graft, meanwhile you believe you are in line for employee of the month and your pockets are lined with double time gold...

I have been up since 4.45am Thursday morning to be more precise... so that's nearly 24 hours I can never get to sleep when I am not on shift, I suppose it's the idea that I can just crash when I want and also partly because I like to make the most of my time off where I can...

Funny that because when I was reading this news report this morning I thought "I wonder how Grizzly is getting on and seen any Polar Bears yet?" Canada murder hunt: search for teen suspects leads only to polar bear Australian Associated Press © Royal Canadian Mounted Patrol (RCMP) Manitoba Image of a polar bear spotted on the manhunt for suspects in a murder case in Manitoba, Canada. The threat of a polar bear attack has become a reality for the huge Canadian police and military contingent searching for the teenage duo suspected of shooting dead Australian tourist Lucas Fowler, his US girlfriend and a university botanist. The manhunt for Kam McLeod, 19, and Bryer Schmegelsky, 18, continued on Saturday with the addition of a Royal Canadian Air Force CC-130H Hercules and personnel searching the unforgiving wilderness near Gillam, a remote area in northern Manitoba. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police distributed a photo on Saturday of a polar bear encountered by searchers 200km north of Gillam. McLeod and Schmegelsky have been on the run since the bodies of Fowler, 23, from Sydney, and his North Carolina girlfriend Chynna Deese, 24, was found dead on the side of a highway 3,000km away in Canada’s west on 14 July. Locals around Gillam predicted the teenagers would face extreme challenges – polar and black bears, wolves, irritating black flies and mosquitos, dense scrub and swamps – if they did, as suspected by the RCMP, enter bushland on Monday night after setting fire to their stolen Toyota RAV-4. “A polar bear was spotted during the search for suspects earlier today – about 200km north of Gillam,” the RCMP, with a photo of the bear, wrote in a tweet on Saturday. “Just some of the wildlife that can be found in northern Manitoba.” The nearby town of Churchill is on a polar bear migration route. The Canadian government, desperate to catch the fugitives, immediately approved the RCMP request for military support. On the ground authorities went door-to-door canvassing locals in their homes and searching abandoned buildings in the hope of finding the duo or picking up clues. The sweep included an abandoned hydroelectric building with 600 rooms. The RCMP surmised the teenagers torched their RAV-4 and fled on foot in Gillam because there have been no reports of stolen cars or carjackings in the area. After days of fruitless searching, the RCMP on Friday admitted they were “exploring the possibility” the teenagers may have fled Gillam with the help of a third person unaware the two were fugitives. McLeod and Schmegelsky, longtime school friends from Vancouver Island, allegedly embarked on 14 July near Liard Host Springs, in northern British Columbia, when they encountered Fowler and Deese. The old Chevrolet van Mr Fowler and Ms Deese were driving broke down on the Alaska Highway and left them stranded. Their bullet-riddled bodies were found in a ditch near the van. Four days later and 470km away, University of British Columbia botanist Leonard Dyck was found dead on another highway. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/newsworldcrime/canada-murder-hunt-search-for-teen-suspects-leads-only-to-polar-bear/ar-AAEYuKW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for butting in on your and @Stan's chin wag but I would like to say that my father was English and my mother was Scottish, I was born in England but grew up in Australia when I was 11 until I returned to the UK in 1972, where I joined the army, ended up in Germany and marries a Scot's girl (40 odd years coming up this Dec) and when I was de-mobbed from the army I moved back to Scotland where I have been here ever since. So, I have more Scottish & Australian than English in my blood so as right of birth I class myself as Scottish on my mother's side, I could have chosen Australian if I wanted as I still have family out there since 1959 but I am happy in classing myself as Scottish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
