You said you are an hourly employee, working 40 hours a week. Most of the time when employees are asked to work 40 hours a week, they work an 8 - 5 job. In most instances, when employees works "regular" hours, but then are asked to work at other times, they are allowed to take time off during the regular work week. And if they have to work on Sunday or a Holiday, they get paid time and a half, or even double time. Is this your situation? Are you allowed to take off during the week if you have to work evenings, or during the weekend, or do they pay you additional money? The other question I have is did you use the CAUT formula during your interview to justify your job, or at least show them how much work is involved in doing your job? Thanks Wim </HTML>
