1 week on and 1 week off is crazy. If the other person is off for their week do you end up doing 3 weeks straight?

so where do you get your legally required 48hr straight break every 14 days?
He'd tell you so you can try and get there in 5 years, but....Seriously tho? 20k in 4 weeks of on call bonuses? What do you do?
Don't need details like who you work for. Just what type of work!
Hah. Turns out I'm not actually as motivated by money as I thought back then. There's a fair few sacrifices you have to make to chase money. Or put another way, you have to really want it.He'd tell you so you can try and get there in 5 years, but....

I think you're right, btw. Just need to find something I enjoy thenYou don't really need to chase money to get the goal you were after though that would be one way of going after it if you wanted to do so with no qualifications. I did mention years ago at the start of that thread that just doing something for the money would be a bad idea. Getting a qualification and doing well in a field you enjoy working in could get you a nice salary as a side effect regardless.
£15 per evening from 6pm to 10pm (Mon to Fri)
£50 per day for Sat/Sun (8am to 10pm)
If you get called and need to come in, it's 3 hours pay for each 3 hour slot. (eg, 3 hours and 10 mins call out = 6 hours).
If you get called outside of those hours, then it's 3 hours pay just for being called. Double rate if you need to come in. So taking a call at 10:15 PM and you come in for 3 hours, 10 minutes. You call it 6 hours, then double it to 12 hours. Plus if this was a weeknight, or Sunday, you'd be in work the next day too.
Being on call sucks, but it's a necessity with many businesses.
My last place was
1 week in 4
£50 a day flat rate, 1.5x an hour after the first hour before 10pm then 2x an hour until 6am. BH and Sunday were 2x as standard.
My current place
Nothing, It is expected that you work out of hours and get nothing if you work less than 4 hours. I have never worked on-call or out of hours work since I have been here because I do not work for nothing.
