I always tell my manager what I’m doing.

I’ll tell them every morning and ask if there’s anything different they’d want me to do in my contracted hours.

You can’t trust them and we all know what they start being like in January. Cover yourself.

If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Probably true what was said about getting grief from manager by following procedure, I have to in my DO, only have 8 duties so manager comes round asking if we will complete.
8 duties ??? How small is your office mate lol ?
Titchy, used to have 9 before last revision. They broke up the High St duty, but the "PHG" has to do about 40 - 45 mins of delivery now, (including extra if we are lapsing like this week).

No idea. They just seem to do it every January for no real gain.
