Who covers Monday? If you are covering tuesday - saturday then monday MUST be down as your day off.
The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.

Well first of all it will be your problem if you aint getting any.
And secondly you stated "with d2d in your workload, there will be more dlys, so more staff. everyones a winner".
I just wondered if you had any facts or evidence to back up that statement or even a theory.........

I know it's only a proposal, according to the truth, but you are going to get 14 minutes per day for 6 sets of household :shock: Now there's a figure to conjure with!
