Default LUL Drivers Work to Rule

If you worked at say Tesco Basingstoke, and you were asked to work at
Tesco Newbury, but you would only finish work when you got back to Tesco
Basingstoke, what would your reaction be?

strike is
because they need to pay off the xmas credit card bills. Wonder how

theres a walkout because theres no one on standby to wipe their


arse

for them in
the toilets.

In case you hadn't noticed I didn't start the thread. Besides , those
muppets
with their endless pay deals are partly responsible for the outrageous
fare
rises on the tube this year so why shouldn't I slag them off? They're
costing
me and every other tube user more money.

Assuming that you get free travel between the two places, and paid for
my time, I'd quietly question the competency of management and get on with
my job.

Of course that would never happen in the private sector as it would be a
waste of money.

Ahhh you hit the nail on the head with the phrase "paid for my time" the
district drivers Don't get paid for their time, travelling from Acton to
Earls Court, that is all they want either to be paid for the time from
Acton as they used to be, or to have ALL duties booking on at Acton
Town, not too much to ask, is it?
