Re: how many duties do you absorb???
We used to absorb upto 6 but since out table top revision we now absorb NONE
However some are getting finished way too early (11.30am) so i cant see that lasting. For me i have a 4hr - 4hr 30 min trolley duty so my absorbtion days are gone

Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Re: how many duties do you absorb???
Amazing that people are still finishing so early, arses like them making the job a shitload harder for the rest of us.
Absorb, yes we do, book overtime or leave in. Of course feckless managers try and bully everyone into taking it claiming "figures say ..." or "mail volume is down" blah etc bullshit etc..
Union rep is about as useful as a day off for a royal wedding.

Smack on the nose there, you damn ne'er do well, if you'd pulled your socks up we would for certain sure have got the valuation on the colleague share and be rolling in the green stuff by now............and I don 't mean grassfishtank wrote:None.
