So I pop on my fixie, cycle along the largest pedestrianised area in Europe then cross the Rhône then to work. It takes between 15 and 20 mins.
I'll then work from 7 30 until 12 whereupon we pop down the road to the canteen (I'll write about that some time in the future- it's worth it). I'll have an hour break for lunch. I'll then work again from 13h until 16h 30.
I might then pop to the gym on the way home, getting in a good long session and still be home by 19h.
It's not all long hours and hard work. On Wednesday I only have half a day to comply with the 35 hour week. You win some, you loose some.
Well what I did loose at is holidays. This is in fact desperately serious. In France, on a CDI (contract of indeterminant length) one has holidays based on the amount you worked the previous year. So you might think I don't get any until janurary. It's worse, the start of their "holiday year" is May. So I have no holidays until May, then for the following year I will have only 2/3 of holiday.
I'll do another post soon about holidays it's all a bit complicated.
