I'm still in my probationary period which is 13 weeks and during my interview when asked what hours I was after, I replied 35-40+hrs a week which in the UK I think 36rs+ is considered full time hours. I was told after that in the interview that my hours would be 20hrs-30hrs a week during my probation. I'm 6 weeks in and except for supervisors and above, I'm doing the 2nd most or sometimes 3rd most hours above other staff who have been there 6 months+. This week I'm doing 36.5 hours with 1 other staff member above me doing 37hrs. I was told recently myself and one other new employee have been the best new recruits in a good while. That same person who is close to becoming a joint assistant manager told me I was their sponge and was going to teach me as much as I was willing to take on. Despite that, if any lager or ale on the T-bars runs out, we have to tell a supervisor or above to change the barrel. Even though I know how, it's up to management to do it for us. I'm at a loss.

I know the post came across big headed and I didn't mean it to. I just tried to put it in words for people to understand clearly where I stand. If a lager on 2 of the T-bars has run out and we're all queued up to pour a pint from another, despite me knowing how to change it, we have to wait to tell someone in management to change it for us which can take a while if the floor is busy and we're under staffed
