I think it just means that you would take double the usual lasping amount. So instead of a walk being split into 1/6 you would have to do 1/3.

Dom could just mean twice as many duties lapsed as normal.
then bigger chunks for everyone.
it would be total nonsense to suggest anyone would lapse 2 separate areas.
just double what you normally do.

the unit are going too quick and coming back early, boss thinks you are making time, therefore more work.
It doesnt make sense too goo quick, just reduce pace.

Apparently lapsing more jobs in our office this week.

I don't even bother looking at the lapsing I have already because there is no time to do it.

If they get away with this, God knows what else they will try, it only stops when everybody does the job by the book, simples ! :cuppa

it might be a bit too simple for some flyers :roll:
