I just think if she is able to go to the busy cinema she could at least try to do a short shift in work. Even if she did a few hours it would mean somebody else got home earlier.

Is noone happy for the extra hours? I find that really weird...especially with how the jobs market is at the moment

I don't think your employers can legally MAKE you cover someones sick days and if its a long term sick thing they should be getting in proper cover. But I find it really really weird how it seems to be annoying everyone to get extra hours..
