Grr I am having contract issues because the admin lady found out that there are guest lecturers and therefore thinks i shouldn't be paid for those weeks, despite the fact that I organise them etc etc, plus they don't expect to be paid because it is a sort of swap thing but that can't be quantified. Thank goodness I have a friend in the department who is permanent and is helping me. I wrote a long email trying to clarify things but i don't think it helped at all.
