I like the red pen. It reminds me of a teacher marking homework.
Plymouth Branch 0/10. Must try harder.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Everyone noticed the PDAS have been updated to have a siso app today?
Hopefully weed out the strange people who think they can (still) start & finish early & choose their own hours! Bravo I say!
From what ive been tols it measures how long youve 'worked' not start/finish times ( ie as long as youve done your contracted hours within that 24hour period then they are happy)
No chance, if anyone really did tell you that shite I hope you didn't actually believe it, so I could turn up when the do opens, sign in then not do anything until my start time an hour later and they'd count that as working !
Well seems as I was told by the regional manager, my Com and the floating Com, I tend to think thats what the plan is. I think in your example they would find work for you to do.
Hmm....well I'm still not convinced, yes my example was a bit exaggerated but nethertheless anyway we'll see.

The fella who has been with the company all of 2-minutes,has been a workplace coach & a duty holder (but gave it up so someone else could do it) - is now being kept in the loop by his regional top brass.

Yeah the office I work at gets regular visits from the regional manager as we are in the same village as where they live so they often pop by to say hello. Quite nice really.

So Tede comes in an hour early, he gets told to stack yorks and trays, sweep the floor and fuel some wagons. He then starts his duty but
according to you can finish when he's done his contracted hours - but there's an hours worth of his duty still to be done....can you
see the flaw in your theory?

It’s made up,just like the majority of what he posts
“Shorts,in this weather?!”

“If they’re bills I don’t want ‘em!”

“What’s she been ordering now?”

So instead of doing my van share I could decide to go in at night and prep walks for 7 hours 48 mins and then go home before my duty is due to start! My God sometimes you should think before you write !!!!

But we shouldn't need to go making agreements with COMs. Work our hours. End of. Start on time and finish on time. Take our breaks. Everyone likes to finish early I get that. But if your finish time was 3pm and you came in earlier than you should have to get finished early and your COM agreed to it but then all of a sudden something goes wrong and all of a sudden your COM has work that needs done and you walk in at 1.30pm. He then tries to send you out again because you have over an hour left until your finish time. Your wee agreement wouldn't hold any water. He's only worried about getting his office cleared not some wee deal he made so you can go home early!

In the case of my office the Com wants to move hours earlier to clear IP as we only have 2 full time members of staff and the part timers cover IP either with agreed OT or by moving times to start early/finish early.
