Twice a week we publish problems that will feature in a forthcoming Dear Jeremy advice column in the Saturday Guardian so that readers can offer their own advice and suggestions. We then print the best of your comments alongside Jeremy’s own insights. Here is the latest dilemma – what are your thoughts?
I started a new job last month, but the dream job I applied for months ago has just come open and I’ve been called in for an interview.
It’s at 9.30am on a Friday and they have arranged for me to meet with three different people. They advised I will be involved in interviews for two hours. By the time I could get back to my job, it’ll be noon or 12.30.
I’ve been entirely punctual, even working late many nights but as I’m still so new, how do I get this time off?
Do you need advice on a work issue? For Jeremy’s and readers’ help, send a brief email to dear.jeremy@theguardian.com. Please note that he is unable to answer questions of a legal nature or to reply personally.
