I just got a phone call from my manager (at 5:53am!!!! bloody lovely time to be woke up :rolleyes:) and he says "we dont need you in this weekend ok bye"

Are they actually allowed to do that? - I need the money! :S

:@ Oh well I have a job interview to be a ride operator at a themepark and I've also applied to Tesco, Travelodge and B&Q haha.. :)

I know McDonalds say they are flexible with shifts, but I don't want to have shifts taken away from me just because they realise polish people are willing to work all day and all night with no sleep for £2.00 a hour! :(

No way do they get £2.00 per hour, the law is £5.20 or something. ;)

Pfft, the McDonalds I work at is really dodgy lol.. I'll not go into that :P

I don't know how much they're on, but it's not as much as me I can tell you that! :P I'm on £4.25 a hour and no way do they get that.

I do think that's very unfair, and also very unprofessional. What time would you have been expected at work? If it was for today, I wouldn't waste my time with them, and would seek work elsewhere.

8am this morning :(

I'm looking for a new job.. Soon as I get offered one, I'm leaving.. Not even giving them any notice either, i'll walk in take my uniform and walk out. :)

Yes they can do that if you are not needed at work. I also saw you applied for Tesco xD.

Get good money with them, I get £6.62 an hour + my £.3.50 an hour for being a first aider, which is better than some places that pay xD.

Also you get location pay at my store it's about £13.50 :D!. So at the end of the month I walk away with a good sum of money (H).
