Joanl   12 #13 Posted October 26, 2016 My first job was at C&A's and we had to clock in by 0850....if we clocked in after that time it came on in red and we had to take it to a Supervisor who would interrogate you as to why you were late, sign it and put a dirty great ring round it. I went in one day, worked all of it then got called to the managers office....there were my cards, wages and holiday money on his desk....I'd got the sack. I'd been late three times that week....1 minute one day....2 minutes another day......total on week? 5 minutes. Can you imagine that happening these days.....I'd love to know if that flippin clock was even correct looking back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Jim Hardie   527 #14 Posted October 26, 2016 I worked in one drawing office where the start time was, believe it or not, 8:26. You had to sign a sheet of paper. At 8:30 they took the sheet of paper away and replaced it with another. If your name appeared on the second sheet more than once in a month you got a talking to. Just what you wanted after a 40 mile drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
