In order to clear up any confusion - that is not me in the foreground, and that is not the Cambuslang DO.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

And with no apologies to The Kings of Leon:

I've got some matches
And I've got a can
It's full of petrol
of petrol

A little combustion
A kiddie at play
Has the manager running
He's running

Yeah
My DOs on fire

We've been asking our DOM why we can't take a higher percentage of D2Ds out on Mon/Tue when the work is lightest, thereby making the rest of the week a bit more manageable. He says the company insist on 20% per day and he has no authority to amend this. Is this right? Sounds a bit iffy.
I staged a Roger Moore impersonator festival in my local village. There were a lot of eyebrows raised, I can tell you.

He is wrong:

2010 says: Whilst the planned workload will be spread across the 6 days, delivery employees will have the ability to manage the delivery of the items themselves on the proviso that all items are delivered within the week and the delivery specification is not affected.

So do it as you want as long as people who cover your duty if your sick know exactly what you have done or....................

But be prepared to be able to absorb wed-sat since you dont have d2d's to do those days :shock:
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.
