inadequate facilities. No squash courts presumabley.

:o)

Is anyone seriously surprised though? Any excuse to do less work and
the
drivers will use it. Presumably the only reason they haven't gone on
strike is
because they need to pay off the xmas credit card bills. Wonder how
long before
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.

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?

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?

Q: Why is bottom-posting such a bad thing?
A: Because it messes up the natural flow of a conversation

So, you have your conversations back to front, do you? Must make
jokes a bit dull, getting the punch-line first.

No but I don't usually have the entire conversation repeated from the
beginning before adding to it. In fact the bit you snipped I thought made
the point but apparently this is a matter you take far too seriously.

You poor soul, we really feel for you.

Have you considered the people who have difficulty reading and use a gadget
that reads the posts out loud for them? It means they get a conversation
"upside down".

Seems to me you should talk to your manager about your contract. Demand
either logical clocking on opportunities, or compensatory pay. If they say
no, hand in your notice and seek employment elsewhere.

Great idea, so instead of a few delays until this is resolved people using
the line have to use only a limited number of trains (60%?) for six months
or so! Don't forget those who teach people to drive trains are actually
train driver themselves!

And that's relevent because...?

If you dont like your job, and you cant agree on a better deal, then seek
employment elsewhere. Doesn't matter if you're a shop worker, train
driver, or prime minister.
