    Sitting here waiting and waiting and waiting. I think that they will wait until the weather gets really ****ty tonight and then decide that its time for us to leave :)

    I'd like to be in bed. I'd also like to be eating a breakfast roll. I'd also like to be watching a really good movie.

    Welcome, you don't have to be mad to post here but it does help😛

    Couchside, had a good Monday as Mondays go,I'm hungry but don't know what I want to eat,ate loads of fresh crusty bread and butter earlier so I'm not starving but still want something nice but can't decide.

    Can someone give me a definitive answer on this...if you are claiming for overtime does splitting it over a few weeks result in paying the same amount of tax,people seem to have different opinions. Tia intelligent wherers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,281 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Agh, after a long day of waiting we had “GO GO GO”, to be replaced 5 minutes later by “STOP STOP STOP”, then we spent the next hour trying to get them to write down what they wanted us to do. Anyway that messing now gets me another 15 hours rest in wet and windy Basel.

    Is that a good thing or a bad thing? And also just reading I am sorry for the loss of your friend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,281 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Thanks Redneck.

    There comes a limit to sitting around cities waiting. But if I wasn’t in this city I would be in another one where I would be working everyday rather than sitting around.

    Would it not depend on what your basic is?

    If basic + full overtime brings you into 52%

    But basic + 1/2 overtime this month keeps you below threshold... It be worth splitting.

    But then I think you can do your balancing statement at the end of year and any over payment will be refunded.

    That said was there new paye rules introduced last year, where tax is continually calculated through the year?.... I'm on extended extended maternity leave... I can't bring myself to look at the legislation, sorry :)

    Sorry that whole answer is not much use.

    I can't follow it up now tbh and everyone has an opinion but nothing definite, I remember a few years ago that you might get tax back for a week or 2 after a big payment of tax(or should I say bigger than the usual big lol) but that doesn't seem to happen now.

    Sorry I can't help you, at the moment I work for a shady employer. I work 60+ hours a week and not paid overtime. Plus I am still on emergency tax with revenue and it's killing me.

    Not being nosey but why aren't you getting overtime?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,021 ✭✭✭✭anewme


    Not being nosey but why aren't you getting overtime?

    I worked 90 hours one week and didn't get any overtime

    That's what happens when you are on a salary.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 586 ✭✭✭Redneck Reject71

    Because he comes up with one excuse after another, And whatever I get goes to my daughter. I know I am being shafted but on paper there is no way to prove it.

    Salary or not.. 90 hours is MADNESS! No employer should be expecting you to do hours like that. I’m on a salary and the most I would do is 48.. and that’s rare as my manager would want to know why I was doing so much more over time? The only time it goes up beyond the mid 40 is when I travel out to Asia and the flight times over and back are included.

    Seph, what has ya blue, bro? Ya OK?

    I love soup but don't have any, I usually get the Avonmore ones.I had one chicken ball lol,curry sauce and a few homemade chips,a few roasted peanuts, a tiny square of dark chocolate that I got free with a coffee today..nothing is hitting the spot but the calories are mounting up.
