Hi everyone, I'm Ed from Tewkesbury GL20 with thirteen(unlucky for some) years service.
I am the CWU rep there.
At our office they are trying to introduce long and short days as well as later starts. Anyone else have this at their office.
I heard about this site accidentally lets pass it on.

Our dum is hell bent on introducing longs and shorts on the basis that it will cut out ext delivery. Although our ext del comes from our rurals because their dels are ott, he would rather have longs and shorts than address the problem with their rounds.

Hi, will do.
I'm fighting everything in our office at the moment until our dum sorts out the reason for our rounds extending.
