Hi Everyone,
I have been told that I need to be available to work "on call" on a 3 weekly basis ( I wasnt told this when I took the role )
The company supplies me with a mobile phone. I recently went out for a meal with my wife and left the business phone at home. I never realised till the next morning that i had missed calls from a client at 10pm.
Anyway I apologised to the other staff that I had missed calls but I was out for a meal.
My gripe is that they have now called me on my personal phone I'm annoyed that they have managed to get my personal no from somewhere (Probably my Resume which none of them should have as My manager is based in Melbourne)
I'm also annoyed that I have to be available in my own time. I do not get remunerated for being on call and I wouldn't have taken the position if I knew that would be the case.
Any advice for me
Regards
Steve
