Contract wording

[Siliconslave]

I've been pushing back about a new contract that included the wording:

"Your normal place of work is initially your home with attendance at meetings at venues as
requested by the Company, until such time as the Company establishes permanent office premises, at which point the Company reserves the right to move your normal place of work to
those premises."

As the roles supposed to be home based permanently, they've now edited it to:

"Your normal place of work is initially your home with attendance at meetings at venues as
requested by the Company."

Do you think it's fussy / necessary to get them to remove the 'initially' from the new wording, would that give them a way in to change the terms later down the line?

Asked for it changed there’s no contract change clause in the rest of the contract so hopefully all good.

The whole ‘we opened an office in Hull’ thing was the worry, don’t think it would happen, but….

got the update through this morning so trying to get hold of my manager to hand my notice in - eek!

no turn, was on final negotiations on the new contract, they've accepted the wording changes i wanted, so have accepted that and need to quit this job now!

Not quite sure what people are reading to make them think this contract is related to his current job?

Thanks, thought I was losing the plot a little there! It’s a new job I was second guessing myself on on the terms as was pushing back on a lot of things.

New contract has been agreed, old job has been quit. Many drinks have been had and now I’m trying to work out which tube line I’m on
