Welcome Break Response

Thanks for taking the time to leave such a positive review. It's great to read that your manager is approachable and you enjoy the £1 meals. I would suggest you discuss wanting a break on a 5 hour shift with your manager, maybe they can be flexible about that. Kind Regards, Charlotte Hughes Resourcing Advisor Welcome Break
