Default Compensation For Delays

Also, note I did say you will stop
driving before end of shift to travel back to the depot to clock off

then carrying on but ending your shift elsewhere


I did indeed note it. Are you jealous of the working conditions they've
fought hard to win?


So you just ignored it. Next time you go on strike remember that you are
not willing to put yourself out when the service has gone tits-up, this
bloody minded awkwardness you call working conditions is a major
contributor to the longivity of problems following the initial incident.
You can never be called professionals aside from proffessional clock
watchers. Your lack of willing to do anything to help the organisation get
back running epitomises the sick culture of your organisation.


What on earth gave you the idea I was a train operator, or in fact, in one
of the unions that has gone on strike on LU? In point of fact, I have
repeatedly travelled in, usually by alternative means to ensure customers
are able to get some kind of service with the limited resorces available.
With the level of virtiol venting from your spleen, perhaps I won't bother
next time. BTW, did you use the District line this evening? If so, it was my
volunteering to work that kept the service running east of Barking.

You think they don't already? Every delay to the train service of over
two minutes requires an incident report. If it's something like
"Operator not available" it requires a list of deployment of 'spares'. I
can assure you staff would rather not have to complete them!


Then they should publish this information. I know, I know, that is totally
against the culture of LU giving out info.


Become an MP, then you'll get the info.
