[QUOTE="JCMaloney, post: 7595997, member: 2821"] Going back a few years I worked at a catering butchers in Essex. We were skilled staff on around £12 an hour days, £15 an hour for nights. The night shift was "job & knock" started at 6.00pm then, once everything was done clean down, stock check, prep for next day and gone by roughly 2.30-3.00am. Then the owners started to employ Portuguese lads who lived on-site but only got £9 an hour on nights. So they started to slow the line down ......... to get more hours in, those of us who were used to knocking off sharp ended up getting "stuck" at work until 6 or 7am. Didn`t bother us too much but nailed the margins for the owners so they started letting folk go...... the skilled ones and they were replaced with more cheap labour........... job was still slowed down & less efficient!
