This is true. We allow pretty much all the OT you want to claim as long as you are meeting your KPI's and the OT is for new lending getting approved, not housekeeping.
If I took up all the overtime on offer I could literally double my pay, we have some people that do. But with Kids you have to work out what's best for them too
Don't bother with HR, just be straight with him and let him respect you based on that. Be strong and tell him you are taking the TIL on x date and that you are giving plenty of notice to ensure things are taken care of.

Oh I'm not complaining at all. I love my role and I feel i get paid well for it, especially as my department is seen as the talent pool for Business Bank Managers which is really good money.
I'm only now earning more than when I was running kitchens but I only work half the hours... sitting down...
