Expand If it was an office job with a contract until 30th June and you finished work at 5pm on 30th June would you get paid anything else for the time from 5pm to midnight?

This is all very silly! 😁😇 Expand It’s not an office job. And your analogy makes no sense, it depends entirely on what the conditions of work are. You also previously said that contracts only include dates, not times. So it’s an irrelevant comparison. I agree, you are being very silly 👍 Edited 21 July, 2022 by The Kraken 1 1
