The tube strike is right!



Loads of lies have been told about the New Years Eve tube strike.



Here's the truth!



http://www.zoneonelondon.co.uk/

It reports 200 ticket seller jobs were exchanged for a drop in the
working week by one hour to 37.5 hours with 2.5 hours per week to be
carried forward as time off. I find it curious I have seen it described
as a 35 hour week deal.

I view it as a conspiracy to reduce the service to tube users.
My local experience of ticket sellers is that they are surprisingly nice
people doing a stressful job with inadequate management support.

My local station - Moorgate - has two ticket offices.
The ground level one is often closed without there being an obvious
opening hours schedule. Yesterday, both were shut. I walked to Liverpool
Street to renew a season ticket. The ticket seller was unable to put a
price on a season ticket starting in January. I was amused.

We should probably replace fares with a local V.A.T.






I couldn't give a ****, you utter ****!


So you are one miniscule little know-nothing pip squeak and you've proved it
to every one. Go play with the live track and do us all a favour!

is not worth a "passenger incident". Otherwise, I agree.

What refund is due for today and tomorrow's service interruption?

I note you multi-posted to uk.local.london.info and uk.transport.london.
That results in 3 separate debates and (trivially) wastes bandwidth. I
cross-post this to facilitate one. (You cross-post by putting more than
one newsgroup name separated by commas in the Newsgroups header. Some
ISP's have local policies which limit cross-posting. Use judiciously.
