where is the fairness

Post by grizzleandtan »

why is they now ft walks, 31 and a half hr walks ,and 25 hrs walks
fulltimers get the hardest walks then the rest get the easiest
so someone who has worked 30 yrs gets a hard walk and somebody who hasnt been there gets the easiest

Not in my office - all walks are the same and we have had input to make that as close as possible.

FTimers PTimers and waysiders have all had an input -

TBH if they are 30 year men then they should know how to play the game and do the daily dance with the managers, most PTimers wont have the years in to do it. Not saying that its right, it aint, but the FT long service guys should be able to fight it better than the short service PTimers.

However, we are seen as a militant office so perhaps that helped.

see fishtanks quote above!

You can only do what can be done in your time.

If you do the job properly, work till your time, it doesn't matter what Geo says you should be able to do.
