Are you all up together on your workload?
Could you take some holiday time?
Unapproachable bosses are a bit unpredictable unfortunately, quite often it's just a case of choosing a good moment - problem is sometimes there isn't a good moment!
Good luck in plucking up courage to ask!FMAAT - AAT Licensed Member in Practice - Pewsey, Wiltshire0 -
You are lucky I don't get any study leave. I am expected to do it all in my own time!0
-
Same here - no study leave for me either. Been quite lucky though in that it has been quite quiet in the office the past few weeks so I have had the opportunity to do coursework here.0
-
I only get to study in the evenings and weekends. I work full time, have a family and a distant learner!! - Good luck with getting leave, I personally would just approach them and ask for non paid holiday and they can only say no and then it is evenings and weekends like me!! good luck0
-
i really hate having to ask for anything but will take them as holiday if needed office meeting in ten gtg wish me luck0
-
Good luck!
I got 1 day per exam for study leave and the time of the exam. The funny part is the one day study leave is only for the day before the exam. I would have liked some flexibility, but am quite happy they actually gave me something.
Just a shame they did decide the skill tests were not classified as exams, so I didn't get studyleave for those.0 -
Yes I get one day for each exam but has I have 4 exams still doesnt seem enough.
Good Luck everyone.0 -
It's taking some time to negotiate, isn't it?
What you been doing in there Vic?????

A whole week! I am so in the wrong job. I even have to use my holidays for exams. Study in own time too, no chance at work.
Congrats on getting it though and good luck for the exams0 -
I'm glad you got a week off - you should get loads of studying done.
Good news - well done and thank you to your manager too, I'm sure!FMAAT - AAT Licensed Member in Practice - Pewsey, Wiltshire0 -

Yeah right, I feel like I know nothing about anything at the moment. It's half term and the boys are sending me bonkers!!!!!
Roll on next week - sod work - I'm studying too. Thankfully my boss is my husband - but no favours there; I need permission from my hip surgeon before I can have sex again, and I don't see the hip surgeon until 28th June - still, more time for studying I suppose!FMAAT - AAT Licensed Member in Practice - Pewsey, Wiltshire0 -

We all know what you're doing on the 29th June then!.............we won't expect to hear from you that day!0 -

OMG you've met him too ..... he's very lovely, isn't he!!! You can see why I'm smitten - unfortunately it's only in my imagination, yes, he's seen me naked, but only under general anaesthetic whilst he put the 13" shark bite impression on my left buttock - sadly the only thing inserted was a cobalt chromium hip joint, and besides I was out of it and would have missed anything else!
Never mind, one day I'll have a flexible hip again, just at the moment I've got to be really careful that it doesn't pop out of its socket until the muscles rebuild.FMAAT - AAT Licensed Member in Practice - Pewsey, Wiltshire0 -

that was my thinking too thats why i only orginally asked for 2 days but after speaking to my manager she said he will be the one better off when i pass and its not as if ive had day reliese or anything as a matter of fact ive matched ever hour at college at work the last three years and like loriel am worth it lol
Yiks that an extra 7 hours a week for 3 years at 32 weeks = ยฃ5376 ive saved him on average too right i want a week off
P.S costing gone to the brain lol0
