The 4 day week.

There has never been a 4 day week on LU unless you work part time.


My original remark was about National Rail.

A 5 day 36 hour week currently,


7hrs a day. Wow!


7 hours 12 mins actually but that was not the point.

and the offer is a 4 day 36 hour week.


So moving to 9 hour days with all the potential fatigue issues that
involves...


In that case the union shouldn't be asking for it, should they?

If what the union really want is a 4 day 30 hour week they they should say
so (and make sure that they are wearing their tin hats when the do - because
they would certainly take a thrashing from the public if they did!)
