London Transport staff are overpaid (£40k to drive a train for 4 and a half days a week!) and no one has any interest in providing a proper Ah , but don't forget , it might just be pushing a lever like a trained chimp 99.99% of the time but that high salary is for that 0.01 % of the time where they'll have to step up to the breach in an emergency! We won't mention the fire brigade, ambulance drivers, police, nurses etc who have to deal with emergencies every ****ing day and get paid half that amount. run and a disgrace. It is a safe bet that they are already planning strikes during the Olympics because they know they can and they know we will all pay up. Virtually guaranteed I'd have thought. If the government doesn't pass a law banning transport strikes during the Olympics then they're asking for trouble. B2003 |
